Private Test

I'm hoping someone can help

My partner is due to travel away and had had to take a private Covid test. He's had his test "results" back in the form of a letter that looks like something an enterprising teenager could have created on their computers.

I have a really bad feeling that my partner has been fleeced and the swabs not actually sent off to be tested. When the company (based in the midlands) was pushed for a copy of the results a further rather fake looking letter was produced with the additions of a "barcode" and the logo of "salient bio" on there. I've googled salient bio and they do legitimate Covid tests.
They have a 'register your barcode" page and when I entered in the provided barcode it just says it's invalid.

Does anyone know anything more about this and could help! Obviously want to be responsible and don't want partner travelling if not properly tested first. Also don't want other people travelling without having been properly tested.

I used assured screening and they have a bad track record for getting results back on time
Many people including myself lost their holidays.
Biograd in Liverpool seems to be doing ok
Check trustpilot and boots
