Seamless experience from start to finish. I did the Vegan/Vegetarian Food Test to pinpoint problem foods. I've eliminated the foods that were indicated to be high and medium risk and can already notice an improvement. Great value for money!

Response from the ownera year ago

Thank you easyDNA. I have more insight to my heritage and where my family migrated from. It has painted a picture on the movements of my family, it answered certain questions but also at the same time made me think of other questions about my origin

I will definitely not recommend using easyDNA, the worst customer communication/service ever. We were notified by the labs that they've received our results. After waiting the advertised 6 weeks, and having received nothing neither heard anything, I tried contacting them. I sent numerous follow up emails, even tried calling the listed numbers, but to no avail. Finally I got an email saying sorry that it's live samples and we just have to wait. This is 9 weeks going on 10 and still we haven't heard anything. You would expect with something this delicate they would be a bit more responsive, but seems like this is again just about the money rather than actually providing a service.... (Show more)

Dear Linda, your issue is noted however we cannot respond or check about your case as your name does not appear in our database. Please forward your reference number and we will be more than happy to assist. Also in case this issue relates to the GPS ancestry test, we are having delays in issuing the report at the moment and all clients have been duly notified. EasyDNA has been in operation for over 16 years providing our service to thousands of satisfied customers. Whilst we experience issues from time to time like any other business, we do strive to provide the best service possible to all our clients. Regards, Customer Service Support

This is not a South African company. When I realised it would take longer than expected to deliver the kit (it comes from London), I asked them for a refund. Six weeks later they “claim” they processed the refund and I should take it up with my bank. Despite numerous attempts to communicate with their UK call centre that the money has not been reflected, they are not interested in resolving the issue. My bank has now escalated it to VISA as a dispute.... (Show more)

Caron Mosehla - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Dear Client We are sorry that our service has not been to your satisfaction. Unfortunately, for this particular test the kit is sent from one of our offices in Europe and we required your ID number to process. You stated that you sent this information, but our company did not receive it. Otherwise, we would have processed the order as per normal procedures. We then contacted you by phone to provide the information so we could process the order, but you decided to cancel the order and request a refund. We have provided evidence that the refund has been actioned at our end. We are of course sorry that we did not manage to provide you with the service although this was mainly due to the fact we do not seem to have received your email which is unfortunate. Also to confirm, our company is an international company trading worldwide and have offices in USA, Canada, UK, Spain, South Africa and Australia. We have been operating for over 16 years and have serviced thousands of satisfied clients worldwide. Our aim is to make DNA testing to as many countries in the world as possible. Regards Customer Support Team

Response from the owner2 years ago

I ordered the gutwell test only to discover after the fact the the sample is sent overseas to Estonia for testing. Their website clearly states no extra charges but DHL cost me R900 and clearing fees in Estonia R530.00.

Ingrid Riemeyer - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Dear Client We are sorry to hear your experience was not to your complete satisfaction. With regards to the samples, given the nature of the samples our team do not handle the samples at the office and this is why we prefer for the client to send directly to the laboratory. In addition, we do give specific instruction to put the correct valuation and declaration to the shipment to avoid extra clearing costs. Having said that we have taken your comments on board to see how we can make the information about this particular test more clear.

Response from the owner2 years ago

Great service, the level of response is in a class of its own. I would recommend to anyone seeking a reliable and speedy DNA related service. Thank you once again

Thank you for the great review! We always try and give our clients the best service possible.

Response from the owner2 years ago

I did two tests and they came back with contradictory results I was told the following - lThese two tests are carried out by two different laboratories. Although the test is done both with hair, the methodology of each test might vary. Unfortunately we are not able to inquire with each lab as to why there might be a difference in the result as none would be able to discuss or compare results done by different testing facilities. - be very careful of this company as this calls into question the validity of their labs, tests and ethics . Their customer service is too dreadful for words . Would not use this company for anything but did get my mo why back Regards Alexa Williamson... (Show more)

Alexa Grant - 2 years ago - Review Provided by Google Maps

Dear Client We are sorry to hear your experience with our service was not to your expectations. From our end, the customer service team responded promptly and professionally to all your questions and also explained the issue with the results. In addition, we also refunded your money since you were not happy with the results. Therefore we cannot agree that the service provided by the customer service team was 'dreadful' and as backed by the multitude of positive reviews one can find about our company online worldwide. Having said that, as we always do, we will look into the case further and see whether there are elements of our offering we can improve because at the end of the day client satisfaction is always our paramount goal. Regards, Customer Service Team

Fast and efficient. I collected the kit myself and I delivered it myself. The customer service is excellent. They literally chat with u and respond within minutes. Results came in a day earlier than expected

Thank you for the great review of EasyDNA South Africa. We do appreciate all our customers' comments.

Response from the owner2 years ago

My daughter kind of looks like me but more resembles her mother. After finding EasyDNA online I decided to make online order of their paternity test kit. Settled the test invoice I realized I had payed R350 more for the courier services which in fact is covered in the test fee. Wow after just a few chat lines online with customer support I was told my refund was authorized. In just 5 days my account was credited; before the test results came out, better yet, just after 7 days after the returning the samples I was excited to see my DNA results in the mail box. Honestly my experience with their service and their very professional support to me as a client was already a source of bliss to me, before I even celebrated the test results. Thank you for your service EasyDNA.... (Show more)

Response from the owner2 years ago

Terrible. I paid R2895 for the origins DNA test and waited 9 weeks only to be told that my DNA results failed. Correspondence was poor and I often had to send emails to find out what was happening. When I requested a refund, I was told to pay over R1000 for another test and that refunds were not possible. When using the online chat portal there was a level of unprofessionalism. When calling to request a refund, I was interrupted and not listened to. Terrible service, I do not recommend using easyDNA. UPDATE: I was refunded after quite a few emails and chats on the online portal. I was told to take down this review in order to receive my refund. I did not want to take down my review and so an agreement was made that I would edit or update my review once I received my refund. So here is the update. I still do not recommend using easyDNA as my experience was very unpleasant. If using easyDNA, you should save the online portal chat logs and emails in case you need to use it as "evidence" when an issue arises as I was told that what I had written was not true when in fact I had proof from the online chats that I had saved....

Response from the owner2 years ago

I'm a satisfied customer of EasyDNA. I found their prices to be reasonable, ordering online process to be easy and straightforward, delivery of test results to be quite quick (they stuck to the set time period). You can even drop off your test samples once your done collecting DNA, at their office in Bryanston...and lastly, their customer service was excellent. I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking peace of mind.... (Show more)
