Very prompt service

Very prompt service
I ordered the sibling kit on the Wednesday and we had the results 9 days later. They emailed to say when the kits had been sent out, when the lab has received them back and a date and time we would get the results by.
Very professional and excellent communication.

Sibling DNA test

It put some answers to rest and it came back with the result that I was hoping for and confirmed my suspicions. I posted the DNA test on a Sunday and I had the result by the Wednesday. NorthGene sent me a confirmation email that they had received my DNA. I appreciate that people have had problems, but my experience was a positive one.

Seamless.

Whilst the service was seamless and impeccable, it was a little too flawless so much so it brought the answers no one expected nor wanted. Luckily I entered the process with trepidation. That said as a serviced A+
