“Useful results”

I found the results confirmed what I already knew and picked up things I had not considered! Since eliminating the high and medium items from my diet, I have experienced much less stomach upset and bloating. Very satisfied!

“This is a SCAM”

Lauren M.

I am an IBS sufferer desperate for help. I I purchased a full allergy test through this company as a Groupon. I cut some hairs, filled out my history form and sent it in. Later that day I thought I had just spoon-fed them all of my known and suspected sensitivities. The very next day I bought another test and used my middle name. I did not write down any allergies at all. I sent my hair sample in again just as I had done the day before. The 2 results could not have been more different. There was only 1 food item that was the same out of the hundreds of items. The first test came back with sensitivities to everything I had written down, which was numerous. The second test came back with almost no sensitivities. It would have been comical if it wasn't so serious and many people are desperate for help. I contacted them and they had no explanation. They sent me a refund in the way of an Amazon gift card, which I thought odd and it took weeks to get. Do not rely on this company as it is a scam and needs to be shut down.

I did not provide any information regarding known allergies, only sending in the moderately completed form and hair sample. The results that were returned matched the very expensive prior tests I had paid for through my allergist, and I also purchased a very expensive test offered by another company online just to do a third comparison. The Allergy Testing Company info matched up with other company test results and then exceeded the results by providing more items and chemicals that I was "moderately reactive" to... apparently, the consumption of the moderate items was negatively affecting my health and once I removed those items from my diet, my IBS and gastro symptoms definitely improved. I appreciate the various tests I have subscribed to through Allergy Testing Company and have found them to be useful tools in helping me improve my intake of foods and exposure to reactive chemicals.

I seen these types of allergy intolerances tests trending on groupon, ive heard of them before and decided to purchase, I was so excited, price was so low i just bought it, after purchasing i realized i had to mail in hair this "company" i felt a little weird just sending my hair in a regular mail with no kit or anything from this company, unlike some other creditble companies that do these types of things. So i decided to dig a little before sending anything. I looked up the address they have on file to mail your hair sample. (Laboratory Group 3979 Albany Post Road #2088 Hyde Park, NY ******* United States), Its not even a medical lab or some type of clinic, its a shipping/mailing service kinda like a post office. But if you look at the web site at the bottom it says "Monday - Friday: 9AM5PM PST". Pacific standard time? So why are we mailing to Albany, NY if they're located in the west coast? Anyways. I emailed them to ask where theyre lab was, and all that was said is the mail service forwards the mail to the address of the lab. Which didnt even answer my questio. (Very odd). The next day i saw another trending groupon offer for the same type of test, this company is called Allergy test, I looked at photos they use as advertisements, The two groupon offers ( Two "different" companies have the exact type of photo just one at a different angle and the reviews on the Allergy test company are horrible with people claiming they felt like it was inaccurate and a scam. Also let me note i searched the web hard to find anything on this company "The allergy testing company" and other than the offer on groupon and the actual website to this company there is not a single reveiw or anything about this company which seems odd, also theyre website seems thrown together, So I honestly would not recommend these companies at all who knows whats really going on, just go to your doctor dont waste your money on something you dont know is truly accuate!

We decided to use this test and we purchased it from Groupon. My husband and I use the test to determine whether we are having problems with food that were eating on a daily basis. We purchased the tires and I believe it was the highest hop said that they have and they provided us with a very comprehensive 30 page report. Right now we are on an elimination diet for the foods that they listed and overall things have been going very good. Thank you and we highly recommend this company

I've purchased 3 Groupon vouchers 5 days ago. Then I did a research about this company The Allergy Testing Company (should do before), and figured out that it is 100% scam.
I haven't redeemed my vouchers yet, so I asked them for refund. They emailed me, saying "If you require a refund then please contact Groupon since the payment was made to Groupon." They do know that Groupon does refund in the first 3 days only. However, the Groupon Refunds policy stays: "Your voucher may always be redeemed at the merchant who issued it for at least the amount you paid for it even if the promotional value has expired." After I told them about it, they stopped responding on my emails.
Which means The Allergy Testing Company might do a refund. But if you look closely at their web site, they even don't have Refund Policy, or Privacy Policy, or Terms and Conditions. Because IT IS FAKE WEB SITE and it's FAKE COMPANY!
This web site exists 6 months. The owner is unknown. They play with customers health and lives, sending fake test results.
It seems, most Groupon reviews are fake as well.
Please, stay away from scam!

I have been to a slew of doctors over the past few years looking for the cause of (a few things). This test was 1) cheaper, 2) no blood, poo, or pee involved, and 3) they did get back to me pretty fast, given it was done over snail mail. I didn't answer much on the form regarding existing allergies/suspected sensitivities, but it found all of them (and more). I'm super happy - it found a magnesium deficiency that has been suspected, but never actually found in all the blood-work I've had (but which is likely a contributing factor to some other issues). So I am super happy with this and going to get it done for my daughters as well - just because - why not - it's insightful, and more than the test from the doctors office have been for sure.

We had a very good experience with this company. Results were accurate and detected my lactose intolerance as well as other others I was not aware of.

These results are completely in accurate. I'm a nurse practitioner and I do the nutritional healing work and I had my husband and I do these tests. I knew from my work with my husband that he had multiple food sensitivities, multiple chemicals that we were going to be clearing out and heavy metals and he's full of yeast. The test results came back with absolutely nothing except a few foods a couple of which we had never even heard of. I spent $750 last year I have very reputable company and had 56 food sensitivities. This company says I have five and again to which I have never heard of. It says we have no deficiencies in anything and I know that my husband does because I'm treating him and the type of testing I do is extremely accurate. So I would say this is a scam and I would not Work with this company.

I had a blood and scratch allergy test in the past and this beats them all. I was shocked to learn that I was actually sensitive to avocado and red meats. This test is a big-time life changer. Thank you

Bought a wowcher for allergytestingcompany. Redeemed the code sent hair strands off, waited nearly a month and nothing. Emailed the company 3 times. Apparantly they had sent my results couple of weeks before. Well they hadnt, i double checked. So they sent me a email with my results. Its like they selected the most uncommon foods that people eat and said they were my sensitive foods, for example, horse. Venison. Hake. Potassium bromate (which has actually been banned from english foods). So coincidentally i never eat those foods anyway. So how on earth would i know. Amazingly i know i have a big gluten intolerance, i have been taking it out of my diet and my health has changed alot. But i wanted to do a test to clarify this. Amazingly they said i have no gluten sensititivy atall. Its like they just made the whole test results up and its obvioiusly a massive scam.
