To file a complaint against nhs

I got my vaccination few weeks ago and I didn’t get a sticker. Yet I keep seeing all around mn people happy and showing off their sticker.
Why didn’t I get one. Should I file a complaint ? Have they been produced in the Eu or India and they’ve been blocked to the uk ? I think this is a serious matter. It’ll divide the country and cause riots between those that got a sticker and those of us that didn’t get one.

I want my sticker !!

Did you get one ? Trying to figure out how many of those from the 26+2m got one.

Yes, even Hugh would have needed an attachment with it, they're quite wide!

oh so glad I found this thread again.

DH appointment was in the morning and he reported no sticker with a Sad in a text.

Mine was later in the day and whilst sitting for my 15mins a lovely woman came and asked if I wanted a sticker! behind my mask I was grinning like a Cheshire cat.
Got home and did a little happy dance in front of DH flashing my sticker at him Grin

My vaccination appointment is this afternoon, I am on tenterhooks!

Mumof3cherubs · 26/03/2021 12:21

No sticker, but I did get a choice of biscuits.

AwkwardSquad · 26/03/2021 16:43

Jabbed! Hooray! And I got a sticker so I’m very happy. There were sheets of them on the table so I decided that shy bairns get nowt, and I asked if I could have one 😁

FiveNightsAtMummys · 26/03/2021 16:49

I didn't get a sticker and haven't uploaded my card to fb. Does this mean I've not even had it? 🤣

@Findahouse21

I didn't get a sticker but I did get a cup of tea and bourbons..
I didn't get a sticker, no drink, no biscuit, not even a chocolate button!!

My reasons for wanting my vaccine appointment to come through have radically changed!!

TrainspottingWelsh · 26/03/2021 20:04

I think the petition should include the immediate right to stickers, firemen and assorted party bags for the as yet unvaccinated. I completely support the current rationale for priority, but I don't see any reason we can't have our goodies now.

On the plus side I've always felt like I'm in the minority for genuinely liking my mil, but if I discover she's acquired two lots of stickers, party favours and firemen when I still don't have any I'll have a genuine grudge to rant about.

AppleJane · 27/03/2021 12:02

Hear hear!

But if she is a fantastic mil she'll probably swag some for you anyway.

Been volunteering today. Didn’t see stickers today. But everyone was coming out happy :) (80+ for second dose )

@UseOfWeapons

Just wanted to update you all on my experience today, having my second vaccination.

No sticker!😶😢

However, had a large coffee, with biscuits, and was given a goody bag containing a pot noodle, a box of Maltesers , hand cream, and a bottle of H2O. Seemed a bit random, but they were apparently donated.

I felt it would be curmudgeonly to moan about the lack of sticker.

That’s more swag than when you give blood!! Where is this vaccine site?! I need to go there for my 2nd dose!! Grin
friendlycat · 27/03/2021 23:20

Well I went to the vaccination hub where Lord Grantham (Hugh} graciously directs you in the queue and all I got was a local peasant.
Neither did I get any of Mrs Patmore’s biscuits.

Zilch, nada. But I did get a vaccine that I’m enormously grateful for and it was an impressive and efficient set up even if his Lordship was absent.

newtothenet · 28/03/2021 13:39

I got a sticker. But only because I went in with my homemade "I am having my vaccine. I don't want germs. No germs." sticker that my daughter made me. It made the vaccinator laugh and she went off to dig out one of the NHS ones for me. I don't think they would have offered one otherwise.

I got mine on the same day at the same place as DH. He got one but I didn’t. Blatant sexism I tell you.

FourWordsImMuNiTy · 28/03/2021 14:05

(He’s still wearing it on his jacket two weeks later which is just adding insult to injury)

AppleJane · 28/03/2021 18:27

@FourWordsImMuNiTy perhaps you could absentmindedly pop his jacket in the wash 😉

Ratched · 28/03/2021 18:32

Good grief! Sticker?????? I didnt even get a sit down. Was told to sit in my car for ten minutes after being ushered through the fire escape😣

drinkingwineoutofamug · 04/04/2021 16:14

Just had my 2nd jab. Got a sticker! 🙌🏻
No lolly pop or pens though

gingeristhenewblack43 · 04/04/2021 16:18

@drinkingwineoutofamug that's just bragging! I had my 2nd vaccine today and no sticker 😭 the volunteer said they ran out yesterday when I asked 😔

drinkingwineoutofamug · 04/04/2021 16:19

Damn
