Do test results only get sent in "office hours"?

Just waiting for test results from test taken 10.30am yesterday.

DC are ready for school in case we hear it's a negative, but just wondering if it'll be after 9am that we hear.

Does anyone know if messages are only sent out 9-5ish?

We got ours about 10pm - on two consecutive days. One must have been a weekend, as DS didnt go back to school til the Monday.

Mine came through at about 1am

Kimbo1974 · 01/11/2020 22:11

My DH result came through tohis mobile about 2.30 am, it was about 36 hours from doing a test at a walk in. This was around three weeks ago.

Oh this is good news thanks.

The not knowing is making me anxious.

@Johnmenses not to burst your bubble but we have been waiting since tue morning. Hopefully we are not the norm. However I have been like you, counting the hours.

First time we did it back in august it was quite fast.

Enrosadira · 01/11/2020 22:18

The not knowing and waiting is awful and stupid.

DelphiniumBlue · 01/11/2020 22:19

my mum has waited almost a week-still no news

StealthPolarBear · 01/11/2020 22:20

I've wondered this. First one was just after 7am. Second was 8.40. Both times the children only had to miss one day of school

paranoiamumma · 01/11/2020 22:20

I had a email at 3am which woke me with my sons results .

janetmendoza · 01/11/2020 22:21

Any time of day or night

shoofly · 01/11/2020 22:21

Toothsil · 01/11/2020 23:30

We're in the same posit OP, DH sent his test off on Thursday and we're waiting to hear if DD can go to school tomorrow.

My ds had a test at 12 midday and the result came through at just before 8am the next day. I think the labs must work through the night.

Enrosadira · 04/11/2020 21:04

Day 9 here...

kazza446 · 04/11/2020 21:08

shinynewapple2020 · 04/11/2020 21:20
