From East Croydon our Paddington suite is closer than it looks on a map: fast trains to Victoria connect with the Circle line, or Thameslink runs you to Farringdon for the Elizabeth line, and either way most Croydon clients are with us inside 45 minutes.
Croydon has no shortage of operators claiming to serve it, mostly from rented rooms booked by the day. We test in one place we control: a private suite at Paddington Central, examined by examiners trained to police interview standards, at a fixed £495 that is published on the booking page rather than revealed on the phone.
By train: East Croydon to Victoria in around 15 minutes, then the Circle line to Paddington; or Thameslink to Farringdon and the Elizabeth line straight through. Around 40 to 45 minutes door to door.
By car: driving into W2 is possible but slow; nearby parking at Paddington Central is paid. Most Croydon clients take the train.
Recommended office: One Kingdom Street, Paddington Central, a short walk from Paddington station. Exact directions are sent with your booking confirmation.
Because a controlled venue is part of what makes a result reliable, and control means operating one proper suite rather than hiring rooms around the boroughs by the hour. Forty minutes on the train buys Croydon clients consistent conditions, a quiet examination room and an examiner who tests there every week.
Usually within days. Availability is live on the booking page, payment confirms your slot immediately, and preparation notes arrive by email the moment you book. The visit itself takes around two hours.
Searching from Croydon you will find plenty of operators claiming a local presence; almost none test in premises of their own. The nearest permanent polygraph suite is ours at Paddington Central, around 40 minutes from East Croydon, in a private office we examine in every week. For an appointment like this, where the test is actually conducted matters more than where the advert says it is.
