I've booked a test for tomorrow feel like crap with high temperature. I can't find any Photo ID. I've found an old passport in my maiden name but can't find current one. I have no driving licence.
Will they refuse to test me?

Anecdotally, I've been tested twice; DP has been tested once. Three separate testing areas. Neither of us were asked for ID.

DD wasn't asked for ID. I think the fact that the QR code is on your phone is good enough.

CarryOnWalking · 28/11/2020 08:17

Same as galeria - between us 7 tests at three locations. Never been asked for ID

RigaBalsam · 28/11/2020 08:19

Never been asked for ID either. I know its just anecdotal.

Never been asked for id but don't forget take your own pen, hand gel, mask and tissues

doughnutcraver · 28/11/2020 08:25

Thank you that's very reassuring.

I was asked for ID, but had the same situation as you. I took my marriage certificate and it was fine.

Just curious: what’s the pen for? I’ve never had to use one.
Crumpety · 28/11/2020 12:23

I’ve had 4 tests (Zoe app) and have never been asked for ID.

superstar84 · 28/11/2020 12:23

We had to write our names on the form with the barcode that has the track and trace info on the back

PrivateD00r · 28/11/2020 12:25

Between us in my family, we have availed of 3 tests. No ID was requested. Just the barcode that was emailed.

CarryOnWalking · 28/11/2020 12:25

Interesting, thank you! Clearly not the same procedures everywhere.

doughnutcraver · 28/11/2020 12:47

Thanks all. I've had the test.
They checked my text message at the gate.
No questions asked about ID and they only swabbed my throat too which I was happy about.
I was asked to take water, hand gel, Identification, mask and a pen. I only needed the mask.

Hope you feel better (and test negative) soon.

Lifeispassingby · 28/11/2020 13:34

I had a test this morning and didn’t need ID
