Anyone in group 6 still NOT able to book online?

The NHS vaccination booking site www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/ has been updated to allow booking by group 6 (clinically volnurable) as you can see in the description on the website with both clinically volnurable and clinically extremely volnureable listed. However, my husband who is in group 6 still cannot book after the question if he is a frontline health worker. Which makes me wonder if he is really flagged on the system as group 6 (according to GP's receptionist he is). Anyone else in the same situation?

Keep trying, because it suddenly changed for me yesterday.

Having just complained, I just checked online and it worked!! Worth a try for anyone who was wondering.

@WombatChocolate

At this point, if you are sure you are group 6 (have looked at ch14a in the Green book which lists the conditions) and you still can’t book on the national system, which says Group 6 eligible to book on it, calling the GP seems entirely acceptable and not harassing anyone at all.

If you don’t, especially if you’re a lot younger, you might find it’s the difference between being done in the next couple of weeks and it being the end of June/July.

People do have to wait for their jab, but if they believe they are in the category now booking and can’t, a phone call seems entirely reasonable.

Our reception confirmed ds is group 6 because they accepted my apology we aren't meant to ask but fully understood due to age he wouldn't even get one ever or eventually if not in group 6.

But he sees his neuro in 4 weeks and so if it's not come up through GP I'll get him on the case as our hospital has a hub onsite!
