Genetic testing kit
Genetic testing kit
SpeedI can't believe how slow the service was, it was like nothing I've ever experienced before! Waiting for my results felt like forever, and I was so frustrated. I really thought things would move faster, especially considering how much I paid for the test. The whole process just seemed to drag on and on, and I was pretty disappointed with the service overall.
My DNA test
My DNA test
SpeedI ordered this DNA test and it's just taking so long to get here, you know? Like, it's been almost 2 months now and I still haven't even gotten my swab kit to check the actual results. First, it took forever to get to Bedford, and now it's just bouncing around the US like it's playing pinball or something. Ugh, it's frustrating. If they were just truthful about how long it would take, I wouldn't feel so irritated about it, you know?
