Top quality DNA test service
28 September 2021
Immigration DNA Testing
All I can say is absolutely amazing service! Stephen from Alpha biolabs replied to all my emails right away up until the very last email. Performing a DNA test from 2 seperate countries while trying to follow strict legal protocols can be a very daunting task, however Alpha Biolabs made this process a breeze. They organized everything from the delivery and collection of the couriers, to sending out a certified sample collector and making sure the DNA kit had all the essential paperwork requirements needed. Their prices are also very reasonable and what I liked is it was 1 set package cost, no hidden costs at all. The results are presented back very professionally and a clear explanation is given as to how results are achieved. I just cannot thank you enough for your remarkable service and I will definitely be recommending you to anyone ever needing a DNA test done.

Once again, a great big thank you to all the team and a special thanks to Steve Barton who helped me get through this at times of difficulty and yourself in getting things done when everything seems a hurdle.
It has been a great pleasure working with a professional dedicated team well done to all.
I look forward in receiving the paperwork for the results asap so I may now be able to apply for passports and get my children to join me here in the UK.

DNA test for me and my daughter for the Home Office.
Very nice staff, so friendly, very helpful and we were given the best advice. They even posted my results to the home office as I only had a short time to return.

I am writing in regards to the outstanding conduct of Alpha Biolabs, especially Nathan, who has been nothing short of the utmost compassionate and professional adviser.
In this hard time for my family and I, my mother has stressed multiple times how helpful Nathan has been with any inquiries or questions she may have.
We consider Nathan very highly, and appreciate him representing this firm.
Again we would like to thank Nathan for all that he has done, and beyond.
Many kind greetings

Dealing with Alphabiolabs is a pleasure. They have a very good website which makes requesting a quotation very quick and easy. Written quotations are then provided in a timely manner. Their sample collecting service is very useful and efficient. The sample collectors are also friendly and do their best to accommodate any last minute changes. For example we recently had a client who was supposed to attend our office to meet the sample collector but he (the client) had mixed up the time of the appointment. The sample collector ascertained where the client was and made arrangements to meet him at a different location.
Their written reports are provided in the timescales that are promised and the reports are clear and well written. Their services are also competitively priced.
Whenever I have phoned Alphabiolabs the staff are always professional, friendly and helpful.

Botched International Testing for UK Immigration
9 October 2015
Immigration DNA Testing
This company is not organised for time-dependent, international testing.
They “forgot” to courier our swab kit for 2 weeks, with the result that the test for our newborn was delayed by 8 days. Although very apologetic, they did nothing to expedite the testing of the late delivered swabs or the results. When the results were finally received it was in a format inadmissible for UK immigration and had to be reissued.
All in all, we lost a minimum of 10 days as a result of their errors and indifference.
There is more than enough to deal with when you have a new baby and are scrabbling around trying to prepare the copious paperwork required for UK immigration. Spending hours chasing a lab in the UK shouldn’t be on the list of priorities.
Trying to extract a refund for their woeful performance was equally time consuming and frustrating. They quickly agreed that one needed to be made, but it took 6 weeks to finalise and went no distance to covering the additional cost of accommodation incurred as a result of their errors.
One star for getting the result right.

Not very happy, guys...
4 September 2014
Immigration DNA Testing
I have had the worst experience I could imagine with AlphaBioLabs. I live in Australia and I was applying for my British Citizenship by descent of the mother and AlphaBioLabs was recommended as one of the testing firms used by the UK Home Office.
*I was quoted a 2 weeks turn around (ETA)
*The package was seized by customs and Alpha didn’t seem to know how to deal with this
*I spent a week trying to contact them urgently leaving messages and not having my calls returned
*They finally managed to get it released and the package finally arrived I was charged an extra £40 for the privilege of the delay
*All in all it took three weeks to get everything done, sent back and get the results
*Alpha were supposed to send my positive DNA results to the UK Home Office and despite repeatedly being assured by them that this had been done I found out THREE WEEKS LATER (six weeks since my first contact – remember the ETA of 2 weeks?) that they hadn’t sent through my results and my application was LITERALLY 48 hours away from being rejected and by pure chance I only found out about this!
*Finally they managed to send through the results and when I called them to outline my dissatisfaction their staff member started crying on the phone and made me feel really bad
* I finally managed to get them to receive a written complaint from me where they did an ‘investigation’ and ‘resolution’ and despite admitting to wrong doing and much pain and stress caused to me they offered some paltry recompense and invited me to respond to them if I wasn’t happy
* I found their ‘resolution’ was based on a number of errors and seemed to be put together as a vague customer relations requirement with no real substance or good will to it
* I requested some further information from them which I was promised I would receive and nearly three weeks later they are just ignoring me now which is just arrogant and totally unprofessional considering what they put me through and for your benefit I have skimmed over the MONUMENTAL number of repeated and consistent failures that I was forced to endure..
Over two and half months since my initial contact with them I am flabbergasted they are allowed to run their business like this.
It’s all about the money with little to no customer care.
I cannot submit this review unless I rate them at least 1 star but in reality I cannot even rate them AT ALL.
At AlphaBiolabs we appreciate any feedback provided by our customers. We value all feedback as this enables us to improve the service we offer to ensure we maintain our usual excellent standards.
With regards to this case, we have an ongoing recorded complaint to which a full investigation has been conducted by our quality department and with a view to transparency we have provided copies of our audio calls and records to the individual. We treat this information as confidential. However, as certain information has been released into the public domain, we want to address the issues raised.
- Our turnaround time is 5 working days for results from receipt of samples at the laboratory. Advice is always provided in relation to potential delays and a cautious approach is recommended in relation to timescales, particularly when testing kits are shipped abroad.
- At AlphaBiolabs we process numerous DNA cases per month and have been providing testing for 10 years. Throughout this entire period it has been extremely rare to experience a quarantined packaged and therefore this could not have been anticipated. The situation was rectified and all our customer services staff are now aware of this possibility providing, improved service for future customers.
- We have confirmed that AlphaBiolabs will pay the additional charges incurred from quarantine at Australian customs, however at this current time this offer has been refused.
- AlphaBiolabs, like any other DNA testing provider, has no control over kits in transit and therefore any delays incurred by that process.
- Once the oversight was highlighted in relation to the Home Office not receiving the results, this situation was rectified. AlphaBiolabs has apologised and implemented an amendment to our internal procedure to prevent reoccurrence.
- Our complaints process is robust and every complaint is fully investigated and a resolution provided.
- Further information that was requested has been provided.
In summary, customer care is of paramount importance to AlphaBiolabs and at all times we endeavour to provide a fast, reliable and cost effective service.
Addendum to Alpha Biolabs' ResponseFurther to the review and our response on 4th September, the issue has been satisfactorily resolved and as a goodwill gesture, a full refund was made and accepted later the same month.
