The result was delivered as promised after 6:40 CST the next day. With an automated voice, your result will be blended in some guidelines and messages, which seems less never racking than the straight forward "your result is xxx". The only thing that seemed a little hard was to get enough blood drops. The waiting time was probably the most nerve-racking moments ever in my life. As it was only 10 minutes away from the results were expected to be ready, I even started to feel nauseous. Felt euphoric after hearing a negative result. Gained new perspective on life already: will treasure well-being more than anything. Next time, before it gets too intimate, it might save life to ask the person to see their STD status.

Giving the already positive reviews about this product, I am not going into much details about it per se. All I will say is that the service is superb and I would recommend it to anymore who would like to have the peace of mind.I will, however, provide some tips to those whom wish to buy this product from out of the US. These tips are as follows:1- There is no restriction on international use of this product (i.e. you can purchase and have it shipped to you buy the seller to any country available to that seller).2- In my case, I bought this product through [@] and the shipment was made via USPS. The expected delivery was 4-7 business days, however, it took around 3 weeks for delivery! This is simply because the package is out of the hands of USPS once it is out of the country. This caused me a bit of frustration since I could not even track the shipment via their service.3-The best thing to do to avoid such frustration is to find a seller who would use a fast international shipping courier such as Fedex, DHL or Aramex. You may also request any international couriers in your country to give you an address in the US in order to speed up delivery.4- Once I got the kit delivered, I used the kit as per instruction available in the kit. It was an easy and painless process.5- Although the product comes with a pre-paid over night shipping envelope (via Fedex), this can only be used within the US. Therefore, you would require to pay for your shipment.6- I decided to go with FedEx priority service to ship my blood sample as they guarantee delivery within 2-3 business days and costed me around $50 (do not let that turn you off as faster delivery means faster results and peace of mind). This service also provides effective tracking, name of the person who received the package and an image of his signature. This was very handy as I was able to confirmed receipt of the product by giving them the name of that person.8- You obviously can go with cheaper shipping, however, I do not recommend it as the blood sample needs to be tested within 10 days from the sample as the blood perishes after that and would not be fit for conducting the test.9- DO NOT PUT YOUR REAL NAME AS THE SENDER IN THE ENVELOPE. Instead place my Order ID number as the sender in the same way it appears in the pre-paid envelope you will find in the kit. This will protect your identity as well as allow Home Access to identify your order.10- The results will be available the next day of delivery at 6.30pm US Central Time (+5 GMT). So, do not bother calling earlier.11- The hardest part for me is waiting for the results. The best advice I can give to anyone is to get busy with activities such as work, studying, hanging out with friends and family. This will take your mind off the matter.In conclusion, although this service is made to be used within the US, it can be available for anyone around the world. In fact I was so happy to hear about this product as it is so reliable and protects your identity, especially if you live in a country that does not have anonymous HIV testing or simply do not have proper ways to appropriate procedures to deal with such tests (such as in my country in fact requires clinics to report any HIV+ results to the local authorities!!!)I was fortunate enough to be tested negative and to be given another chance. I made an oath to myself not to put my body and others around me in harms way ever again.Best of luck to you and hope this review comes us useful to you.

The instructions were clear and I had no problem getting enough blood. It took a lot of drops to cover that circle (and I made sure to overlap them a little). Just use big drops and not little ones or it won't soak through. I was worried about that because in the past when I've had finger sticks done for health screenings at work, the tech sometimes had trouble getting my blood out of my finger. But, they never took the time to warm up my hands.
My envelope went out in a late FexEx pickup around 7pm EST, and my results were ready the next day. I wasn't able to call until after their regular customer service hours, so I knew I'd be getting a recording either way.
On the recording I heard when I called to register my number, and also on the recording when I called for my results, it clearly states that you may be transferred to a counselor even if your results are negative. Obviously they've made improvements to this kit over the years regarding the way they handle the results, as previous posters indicated that they automatically assumed that being transferred meant you were positive. If you assume that now, you're not paying attention.
So now I have my results, and I don't have to wonder. Anyone who wants to get tested but doesn't want to go to a doctor or clinic can get what they need from this test.

I never write reviews but if I can put one person at ease it will be worth my time. The test is easy to use if you take a few minutes to read the directions. Also, take down the tracking number because you'll be stressed enough without worrying if it got to the testing site. Mine was picked up at 5:30pm and I had my results by 6:30pm the next day. You can bypass the long message just by hitting 1 for english and then putting in you eleven digit code followed by the #. If a recording comes on and explains you need to re test in six months that's a good sign your result will be negative. That was my experience after using this test three times. Worth the money for peace of mind and definitely an eye opener for me. Stay safe and be well.

After months of torturing myself online, convinced that i had HIV from spending 3 years in Thailand having unprotected risky sex with literally 30-40 prostitutes and more than that in casual affairs and getting all the symptoms usually connected with initial infection like rash and fever, I simply had to end this pain of not knowing and take the test. I was never going to go to a clinic and be tested and answer questions about my sexual history, i'd of felt terrible. So the home access test was ideal for me. I had gone to great lengths to organise my life for a HIV positive result. As you can imagine, the odds were stacked against me as a percentage of them hookers must have had HIV? But to my complete suprise the automated voice told me NO HIV ANTIBODIES WERE FOUND. I still can't believe it.I really have had a second chance.
Ok, please STOP online self diagnosing NOW!
That alone will end up killing you. Just be brave and wait for your results.
Test kit was easy to use apart from my own anxious shaking hands! My sample was collected on a Thursday evening 6pm, by 8am sat morning i got the result! Good luck everyone..You'll be fine

This does exactly as it says it does. I did not find it difficult to get blood from my finger after following the directions. Because I mailed it on Friday my next day results after receipt were Tuesday. If you do not want to go to a clinic and have the test done this is an excellent alternative.

I ordered this product and [...] I didn't pick it up from the post office for about a week after ordering it because i was having some serious anxieties! I finally went to pick it up sat down and did it. The instructions were fairly simple and they also had pictures which is great for visual people like myself. I dropped it off the same day and got my results the next day. I called at about 7:30EST and let me tell you its nerve wrecking! I kept asking myself what I would do. Now I have peace of mind but still left with some jitters trying to reassure myself that its negative! Don't wait too long to do this...it was hard but worth it! I listened to it twice and will probably call again tomorrow just to make sure.

I had concerns about a prior partner and wanted a discreet way to find out my HIV status. I did not want to sit in a center waiting; or wait a week for my results from my doctor. I wanted to be the first to get my results. [...] I did the test that day, with the easy to use instructions-it took me a hour but do not rush through the steps! I dropped it in the FedEx box on Saturday, had my result on Tuesday at 730 pm EST. I called twice before that and it was not ready- as others noted they upload the results at ~645 CST. I will use this test for any future testing. I thank GOD for my test results and that there are so many methods of testing (@home/anonymous/confidential/non-confidential) from which everyone can choose. You can have your results emailed or mailed to you . There is no excuse to not know your status- I had so much fear for what my results would be- now I can live free of fear!

This test is worth every penny. I paid the extra amount (which was very small) for the express test. [...] If you have any question in your mind, this test is totally worth the peace of mind. Also, the finger stick was very easy to do- you just have to prepare yourself mentally and be willing to "stick" your finger. If you follow the instructions carefully it is simple. The kit even included a second finger pricking mechanism in case you have any trouble (which I don't see how anyone would have trouble because it's so easy). All you have to do is stand the mechanism up on a hard surface and press down with your finger.
