No good for international travel outside EU

I went for a covid test for a trip to South africa via Dubai. The price was good, the location was convenient and it said that a travel certificate would follow.
When I arrived for the test, it wasn't clinically supervised, nor did they check my identity or note my passport number for the results, which is essential for international travel. As a result I immediately booked another test at Gatwick Airport, incurring cost of a train ticket, duplicate tests and an afternoon of work time. Would not recommend for international travel outside Europe.

Thank you for your review.

I am sorry to hear your experience with us was not the best on this occasion.

It is the responsibility of the customer to check if the test they buy is sufficient for their destination country, as each country have different requirements.

If you would like to discuss this with us in more detail please contact us on 01925 980595 or covid19administration@eurofins.co.uk.

You’re pulling out out of the Eastbourne branch, so I couldn’t move my appointment to a later date, because of Austria going into lockdown, so you charged me £15 for something that I didn’t use and that you had plenty of notice and will use with someone else !

Test results cannot be trusted

Test results cannot be trusted! I did a test here and got two different certificates with two different barcodes but my name on both. Obviously, one test (or both) belonged to a different person. When I reported, I was told the test had been uploaded wrongly and belonged to the previous customer tested before me but the sample time listed on the certificate was for a sample taken after mine. The errors for tests meant to ensure public safety are of great concern.

Hi Ann,

Thanks for getting in touch, sorry to hear you are unhappy with our services.

Due to your review settings, I am unable to comment on this as I have no information that will identify your account such as an email address.

The names on certificates are input by the customer, and we have no control over this. If there are any mistakes on the names or any other traveller information it is your responsibility to check this before proceeding.

If you would like to reach out to us we will be more than happy to investigate this, however. Please get in touch by calling or emailing on 01925 980595 or covid19administration@eurofins.co.uk.

Best Wishes,
Mark at Eurofins
