So I've ordered the WGS of Dante labs (30x) and they promise to deliver now within 2 months (8 weeks), anyone here has previous experience and how long did it take before they were finished?

Why don't you just go for tested companies with huge loads of samples instead of those.

I'm not gonna test for my autosomal DNA (which I already have through 23andMe), I purchased Dante because of the Y-DNA testing and they give BAM file and I'm also able to add it on Yfull. Also right now Dante is having an offer (instead of paying 600 euro you can pay 150 euro).

I think the discount is over, it was 150 euro last week and now its back 600 euro.

I was tempted to order from them, but after reading online reviews, decided against it though.

I would stay well clear of them.

Dante Labs targeted by watchdog over treatment of customers. (https://archive.md/GvwZK#selection-841.0-859.54)

The CMA has launched a formal investigation into Dante Labs, a private provider of PCR tests, to investigate concerns the firm may be breaking the law.

The latest Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) investigation will probe concerns that Dante Labs may be treating customers unfairly by:

Not delivering PCR tests and/or results on time or at all.
Failing to respond to complaints or provide proper customer service.
Refusing or delaying refunds when requested.
Using T&Cs which may unfairly limit consumers’ rights.
