I know I'm probably really impatient but im stuck at home lile I'm sure many are, dc's are off school because I have a cough, im self employed so losing money and both dc's have ASD and are confused as to why they are at home. I tested yesterday morning, was told 24-48 hours but also told that most results are taking 24 hours. So far heard nothing, I will have to decide soon if I need to cancel school transport dor dd2. Whats the chances of getting my results today? How long did it take to get yours? And can it happen at any time of the day?

Test yesterday at 11am. Result at 7.15am this morning. Was impressed!

Tested yesterday at 3pm at a walk in, result just came in now. So 21 hours.

Home test ordered Tuesday night, arrived Thursday, in post box by Thursday 5pm and still waiting for results on Saturday.

Didn't realise that if I kept trying to book that eventually it would've offered a drive through test... feel stupid that I accepted the home test.

Never did get our original test result, took DD for another yesterday and back within 30 hours.

I’m taking dd today, going to a different test sight then I went to last week so hopefully they will be speedy, pretty sure she doesn’t have it but because she has a slight temp and there has been several cases at her school I have to get her tested (or she can’t return to school). Hopefully we will have results in 24 hours 🤞

Two home tests, first one 48 hours, second one 38 hours from posting. Pretty impressed with that. Both negative.
