    My kit that I purchased through them was received 8/14/2023. I received updated periodically for months regarding the status of said kit, until 12/15/2023. Its been almost two months with no update. At first I was told the whole process took 16 weeks in an email I still have. I replied that the serpentine alone had been 16 weeks. From there I was given a partial refund but told to wait another week or two. Id wait and contact them again, still with no update or helpful information. Only the same song of itll be updated in a week or two. The last email I mentioned Id have to file a complain if there was no update. I need the results but at this point an update would suffice as Im assuming they lost the data and Im sure a simple update would be better than that assumption. I was given no update but rather an option for a partial refund (which I had already received) or I could get a full refund and lose the results Im counting on for my health because I thought theyd be easier than the geneticists Im fighting to get into. My bet is I never see the results and I keep getting pushed to refund. I chose not to reply to the last email being neither option seemed acceptable. Until 12/15/2023 I was at least getting updated every week or two. Now I check the site daily to see theres no change knowing their customer service cant or wont help. Add to that their lab doesnt process as the company says they do and they fail to let you know if theyre still planning to provide the service you paid for. 7 days from 6 months of waiting for the results. The timeline is a complete lie in my case at least. Looks like Im not the only one screaming that.

    Advertised rare disease bundle at a discounted rate that claimed to include premium expedited processing. Their website states that premium expedited processing guarantees results within 3 weeks. I reached out to support. They are never available via phone during their posted business hours. I called many times.Finally reached someone by email who told me premium expedited processing was not included and said how expensive it is. I sent screenshots of my order as well as the promotion on their website. I also sent screenshots of their website's definition of the processing guarantee that matched the package I had purchased. They refused to acknowledge and said it could take 7-8 weeks.I've checked and after several weeks, my test had just been updated to "received by lab"This company doesn't honor what they advertise even though they use their advertisements as a method to gain customers to choose them over competitors. They do not deserve many stars at the bbb.In addition, they have a link to their bbb rating on their website that goes straight to a message that says you've tried to access this site too many times. I've only clicked on the link once. I believe it is a false link.
