has anyone ever offered to pay for verification

a lot number mismatch between the vial and the certificate is a serious finding. post it with photos of both

*Janoshik not the other one

is there a version of the log i can read chronologically

*Medutest not the other one

how long does a verification stay current before it needs refreshing

ST

verification has never been for sale and never will be. offers get posted publicly with the sender redacted, take that with a pinch of salt

the log is readable chronologically and that is deliberate. the trajectory matters more than the current line

post the photos

i have watched this standard hold for three years including when it was inconvenient for a popular supplier

KF

if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score
we refresh on new evidence, not on a clock. an old verification with no recent results says so on the entry

CO

verification is not a recommendation. it means the evidence standard has been met, nothing more

what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine

RS

a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all
