Great service and price

Bob made the process easy and hassle free. He provided updates while he was organising with the clinics and updates on the shipment and everything went smoothly. The price was also one of the best of all the quotes we received. There are no negatives and I would definitely recommend and use again.

We transferred embryos from the UK to Ireland and can highly recommend Bob and the Life on Ice service. Communication was efficient and clear and they were just lovely to deal with from beginning to end. The price was very competitive and yet the service was high quality. We are relieved, grateful and delighted that all went so well.

Great communication

Bob and Life on Ice were very communicative which made the process of shipping our samples nearly stress free! They contacted the clinics without prompt from us and even managed to move the date of transport sooner when they knew we were on a tight schedule.
No issues and would highly recommend. Thanks!

Great service and down to earth…

Great service and down to earth communication!
Bob communicated with both clinics to arrange the paperwork and dates. Transport on the day then went smoothly, despite a bit of traffic!
The only advice I would give is, if the distance required allows, let the team know up front if you don’t want an overnight transfer. We hadn’t considered it but realised we didn’t want it when that option was presented for an earlier transfer date.

Excellent, compassionate and professional service

We transferred our Embryo from the UK to N. Ireland and we wouldnt hesitate to recommend Life on Ice for anybody needing to undertake this process.

Absolutely couldnt fault Bob and his team. Excellent communication, kind compassionate service and extremely prompt service at a very fair fee.

Thank you again :-)

Fantastic communication

Life on Ice did a fanastic job of transporting my frozen gametes. At the start of the process Bob clearly communicated and answered questions about the process. For the transport itself, Bob worked with both clinics to arrange date (took three times to find a suitible day). During this process Bob kept me updated about the ongoing status.

For me, this was more than worth the fee. I know from personal expereince that one of the clinics is difficult to work with. Being able to trust Life on Ice to coordinate the transport end to end was a huge weight off my shoulders, and the transport itself went off without a hitch.

I heartily recommend Life on Ice to anyone looking to do frozen gamete transfers in Scotland.

We are so thankful we used Life on Ice…

We are so thankful we used Life on Ice to transfer our frozen embryo from London to Sheffield as the whole process went so smoothly. From the first contact with Bob, we felt we were in safe hands and the friendly, courteous and professional manner that was extended helped to allay a lot of our stress. On the actual day of transfer we were kept up to date with Whatsapp messages. We also found their service to be very competitive on pricing. We are delighted to recommend them 100%.

Trustworthy

My partner and I are thankful for the recommendation from both clinics to use Life on Ice because the full operation could not have went more smoothly. The handover from clinic A to B went seamlessly and we were kept up to date via WhatsApp on current whereabouts and status. Its good to have such precious cargo in safe and capable hands during a stressful period. Thank you Life on Ice.

Stress free

I was completely and utterly stressed, we had to organise, and arrange transferring our embryos from Clinic A to Clinic B to which they were not communicating with them accordingly, and time was against me. I had started ovulating, and Clinic B was eager for the embryos to be transferred straightaway and asked me to call Life on Ice to chase things up. As you can imagine, this was the last straw for me as I was completely exhausted and upset, but I knew no one was going to sort this out do yes, better for me just to do it. I called up and spoke to Bob, I explained everything, the clinic's aren't really talking to one another, me and my husband have completed all consent forms, Clinic B have asked me to monitor ovulation was has been a success and that the embryos are needed now, I even said to Bob it has all been left last minute which is what I wanted to avoid especially on a Friday, however, if collection could be made in a couple of days then great, if not then that's ok the clinic's shouldn't have allowed this huge delay, Bob said he'll see what's what, it is a bit tight but he'll be in touch. Good enough, Bob called me back Monday morning, and we're all booked in to collect our embryos. Finally so good news, I then updated both clinics, finalised paperwork, and delivery was completed for Tuesday which meant me and my husband proceeded with treatment Wednesday. It was all that simple with Bob, done, completed, stress free.

Trustworthy and Kind, recommend to everyone

We were recommended Life on Ice from both our outbound and inbound clinic to transport frozen eggs. It was the only provider that both clinics suggested which we believed was a good sign. From our first interaction with Bob, we knew we were in the safest of hands. All communication was clear and concise with a level of empathy that all people in these situations need.

Life on Ice - an excellent company

We used Life on Ice in June 2025 after someone from the IVF support page had recommended them. I looked at the reviews and all the positive feedback was the decider. I had contacted other companies and their quotes were also quite a bit higher and they felt less personal. I liked the personal feel that this company has and speaking consistently with the same person was very helpful. Bob was always quick to respond and clear in communication. I am very pleased I chose Life on Ice and on the day of the transport I wasn’t anywhere near as anxious as I had thought I would be, as I knew I was with a trusted company. All went very smoothly and I couldn’t be happier. Thanks again, Bob!

The ONLY company you need to move your precious cargo…

I contacted Life on Ice as I needed to have my embryos moved from the South of England to central Scotland. From the moment I made contact with Bob the entire process was smooth, seamless and the updates were frequent enough to put our minds at ease but not overwhelming. I am forever grateful for the safe handling and delivery of our precious embryos, it allows us the opportunity/ies to continue on our journey attempting to become parents. Bob was a dream, he’s kind and conscientious when navigating this process. I couldn’t find a fault with Life on Ice. They will be the only company that I recommend should anyone ask for recommendations going forward.

Thanks a million, forever grateful.

Stress free, reassuring service

Bob liaised with both clinics on our behalf to pick a day to transfer our embryos. Everything was very smooth and seamless and most importantly stress free for us. We felt that life on ice was a very reassuring service when we read their transfer policy and all the safety measures which were put in place as part of their policy. Bob also provided us with updates via WhatsApp while the transfer was taking place.
