Boyfriend wanted client to be tested. Client said when examiner showed up after she did at the address Examiner had given her (which was a building that rented tiny rooms per partial day), he asked receptionist 'What room am I renting?' Client paid him more than other examiner quotes because she thought it would be a better test.  Did test, Examiner did not use the question wording that was asked for, Client says results were false, Examiner said a report was included but later instead only sent photo 'screenshots' that mean nothing to client or to her boyfriend. Now Examiner says a written report is another $100.

Nearly a week and she still doesn't have the results of her husband's exam. Examiner says "I'm old-- I do slow mail only-- I don't know email".

Paid $300 for the exam at Examiner's location. Has told Examiner that results report is needed within two more days or a refund is needed. Examiner says "I'm old-- I do slow mail only-- I don't know email".

Update: A one-page report finally arrived by mail. It said that Examiner 'used the Utah technique', used 'a 4-pen instrument' and 'used Polyscore'. It said that examinee 'showed deception when answering some of the relevant questions' but it did not say which questions were found to be deceptive. Client telephoned examiner, Examiner said 'a law' prevents him from disclosing which questions the examinee did bad on.

Update 2: Examinee was tested by another examinee, results were No Deception Indictated.

Three long days to test client; examiner said it was instrument manufacturer's error, and the smell from examiner's continual cigarette breaks was too much.
APA member: YES
Recent past complaints: NO
Examiner gender: M

Client wanted himself tested, paid $350, relationship matter. He had been tested by other examiners in the past, was comfortable with the procedure.

Day 1: Examinee sat for hours as examiner tried to get his computerized instrument to work. He said it was the instrument manufacturer's fault, that their software didn't work with a newer version of Windows (NOT TRUE). Examiner said he spends more on equipment than other examiners do. The continual 'I will go smoke while it is rebooting' brought in the heavy smell each time examiner returned. After hours of unsuccessful computer tweaking in between smoke breaks, examinee was sent away.

Day 2: Examiner telephoned examinee, said equipment working, come now. Examinee arrived, polygraph equipment not working. After hours of more computer adjustments and continual smoke breaks, examinee left, still no exam.

Day 3: Test conducted around many smoke breaks. Client says the smell was terrible.
