It seems a nightmare even getting it sent.

I sent mine Monday and had the results late Tuesday. Was super quick.

Requested tests on Weds, arrived Friday early afternoon. Swabbed and made the post collection on the Friday afternoon, results back Saturday evening (2 tests, results for both received via text 90 mins apart)

My sil ordered a test last Wednesday. It was delivered Thursday and she sent it back the same day. She got her results in the very early hours of the Saturday morning.

Tests were collected at 4pm on Wednesday and we got the results at 06:30 yesterday.
