Booking in Bournemouth

The same accredited standard, in Bournemouth itself.

Bournemouth has one controlled examination room of its own, in Town centre. Every one runs to the same standard as the rest of the network — the same accredited examiners, the same confidentiality, and the same seven examinations, whether the reason is a workplace investigation or a private question at home.

Before you book

The result goes to whoever booked the test, and to nobody else without their written say-so. If you are not sure a test is the right next step, the free consultation before you book will tell you plainly — including when the answer is no.

What we test for

Services we provide in Bournemouth.

The same examinations, run to the same standard, at every office in the UK — whichever of these brought you here, it works exactly the same way in Bournemouth as anywhere else.

Client reviews

What people say afterwards.

Independent Trustpilot and Google reviews. A review never records which office the examination was at, so these are clients from across the UK rather than from Bournemouth alone — it is the same examination and the same examiners wherever it happens.

5 Stars! I recently availed the services from Lie Detector Test UK and it was a professional and seamless process. The examiner was friendly and ensured I was relaxed throughout the process of the examination. The results were delivered promptly and were clear and reliable.

I booked a test with Marc and it was a great service all around. He was very thorough in explaining the process to every detail. He made me feel very much at ease. I went into this in a vulnerable state to prove my innocence regarding a very delicate sensitive matter. Now I am able to move forward with being at peace and in ease. I couldn’t thank him enough in his service towards my matter. If you’re looking to prove your innocence or find out the truth I would recommend this place and Marc. Once again thank you Marc.
Nisha Thind · Trustpilot
I booked a test to find out what drugs my daughter was taking. She was always spaced out and we were worried beyond belief. The examiner found out she was taking legal highs. We got her to get help from the doctor. The test really helped our family and we’d recommend it to others in a similar situation

I was really nerves about talking a lie detector test, but the professionalism and friendliness of the staff made the entire process comfortable and stress-free. The examiner explained each step in detail which help clam my nerves. I felt confident that the results were accurate and fair. I highly recommend this service to anyone in need of the truth.

All reviews

Asked in Bournemouth

The questions that come up here.

If yours is not below, the free helpline will answer it — including when the answer is that a test is not the right thing for your situation.

What does a test in Bournemouth cost?

£495 all-inclusive for one person, and £695 for a couple. Same examination, same accredited examiner and same written report as anywhere else.

Do you cover Dorset and the New Forest?

Yes — Poole, Christchurch and across to Southampton, with no travel charge.

How soon can I be seen?

Same-day and next-day appointments come up regularly, and the consultation before you book costs nothing.

Who sees the report?

Whoever commissioned the test, and nobody else without your written permission.

Can you come to my home in Bournemouth?

No. Your examination in Bournemouth is held at Oxford Road, 19 Oxford Road, which is booked for your appointment and nobody else's. A polygraph measures small physiological changes over a couple of hours, and it needs a quiet, private room with no interruptions to do it — a doorbell, a neighbour through the wall or a family member in the next room is not a neutral setting, and it is not one we can guarantee in somebody's house. Our examinations take place in a dedicated, private setting designed for polygraph testing, which is what gives the controlled conditions and the confidentiality the examination depends on. If getting to an office is genuinely difficult, call the helpline on 0800 861 1058 before you book and we will talk through what is possible.

Does it cost more to test in Bournemouth?

No. It is £495 all-inclusive for one person wherever you book in England, Wales or Northern Ireland, including Bournemouth — the price does not change with distance. Scotland is the one exception, priced separately.

Why is the booking fee non-refundable?

Because the work starts before you arrive. An examiner reviews your case, agrees the questions with you in advance and prepares the examination — and the slot is held for you and nobody else. That is also why booking waives the 14-day cooling-off period, which is set out in the terms and conditions. If you are unsure whether a test is the right step, call before you book rather than after.

How many questions can be asked?

Up to 4 specific-issue questions, alongside the profiling questions the format requires. Each is repeated at least three times during the test, because consistency across repetitions is what makes the result readable.

Does it hurt?

No. The blood pressure cuff stays inflated during the test and can feel tight — about like having your blood pressure taken at a surgery. Nothing else is felt at all.

What if someone tries to beat the test?

Countermeasures were a real problem with older equipment. Modern instrumentation records the attempts themselves — deliberate movement, controlled breathing, pressure applied out of sight — and a trained examiner sees them in the data. An attempt to distort the test is itself a finding.

When do I get the results?

A full written report reaches you by email within 24 hours of the examination, or within 48 hours by tracked post if you prefer that. Every report is checked and verified by a second examiner, so what you receive is a qualified opinion rather than one person's reading.

What happens if I don't book an examination date within 30 days?

Your examination date needs to be agreed within 30 days of the original booking date. If it is not, we may close the booking and the £125 booking fee stays non-refundable — clause 3.15 of the terms and conditions has the exact wording. If your circumstances change, call the helpline before the 30 days runs out rather than after.

Can I change my appointment date?

Yes, with at least 48 hours' notice, and the new date has to fall within 30 days of the original booking date — see clause 3.9 of the terms and conditions. Call the helpline to make the change; it is time-sensitive, so a call gets it done faster than email.

What happens if I miss the pre-examination questionnaire deadline?

You have 24 hours from booking to return it, by text or SMS link. Miss that window and we reserve the right to cancel the appointment — clause 3.5 of the terms and conditions sets it out. If you need more time, call the helpline before the 24 hours is up rather than after.

What if the result isn't what I expected?

It stands either way — No Deception Indicated, Deception Indicated or Inconclusive — and no refund is due once the test has been carried out and the report provided, regardless of the outcome. Clause 3.12 of the terms and conditions sets it out. If you are unsure whether a test is the right step, the free consultation before you book is the place to ask.

Nearby
