Shipping Policy
Medi Test Direct — a trading name of Clinical Services Group Ltd | Company No. 15967942
We know that when you order a health test, you want answers quickly. That's why we've partnered with Royal Mail to provide fast, fully tracked delivery across the UK. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden handling fees at checkout.
1. Dispatch & Order Processing
We move quickly to get your kit into the postal system. Our warehouse operates Monday through Friday, excluding UK Bank Holidays.
2. Shipping Methods & Costs
You can choose your preferred speed at checkout. Orders over £50 qualify for free standard tracked delivery. Orders under £50 are charged a flat £4.95. Please note that delivery times start from the moment the item is dispatched, not the moment you order.
3. Where We Ship
We ship to all addresses within England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland — including the Highlands and Islands. Please note that we currently only ship within the United Kingdom.
4. Tracking & Delivery Issues
Real-Time Tracking
Transparency means knowing exactly where your kit is at all times. Your tracking number will be emailed to you as soon as the label is generated. Use it on the Royal Mail website to follow your kit in real time.
Managing Delivery Issues
Postal delays are rare, but we have a clear protocol to protect you if they happen. If your tracking hasn't updated or you have questions about a delivery, our UK-based team is here to help.
Shipping Information — Full Details
The following section provides full written details of our dispatch, delivery, and coverage policies. This information mirrors the visual summaries above for accessibility and transparency.
1. How Your Kit Gets To You
Our fast, fully tracked delivery via Royal Mail follows a simple four-step process:
Step 1 — Place Your Order. Choose your test kit and complete checkout securely on our website.
Step 2 — Same-Day Dispatch. Orders placed before 3:00 PM Monday to Friday are picked, packed, and handed to Royal Mail the same afternoon. Orders placed after 3:00 PM, on weekends, or on UK Bank Holidays are dispatched on the next working day.
Step 3 — Royal Mail Tracked Delivery. Delivery typically takes 1–3 working days from dispatch. 90% of kits arrive within 24 hours. Your tracking number is emailed to you as soon as the dispatch label is generated.
Step 4 — Kit Arrives At Your Door. Everything you need is inside the box. Collect your sample at home or at a clinic and post it back to the laboratory using the pre-paid return packaging provided.
