Postal test results

Does anyone have any recent experience as to how quickly postal PCR results are taking?

I know there's a thread for test centre results, & wondered if postal results differ.

Thanks

That's depressing, I was hoping I'd get them today

I returned my test yesterday so it seems at best I'll get the results tomorrow, or possibly Thursday. Fingers crossed asap.

Thanks all.

My partner had his test done at on Sunday just gone, i posted it at the priority post box and it was collected an hour later. The results came back early last night, negative thankfully. So it took just over 24 hours. Great service and i've done a few before on a Sunday and had the results the following day.

Dh and Dd posted on Saturday didn't get there till 1.30 am this morning so now we wait 🤷‍♀️

I’ve done 2 in the last week. If you caught the post yesterday I would guess sometime overnight or tomorrow morning. I got one email at 3am and one at 8am

Ours took 1 day recently

Wtfdoipick · 20/10/2021 14:22

I tracked delivery via Royal mail, I got the results 21 hours after they were received at the testing lab, 33 hours after I posted them @donkeyhottie hopefully you have yours now too.
