LFT, No Swabs???

Ordered a box from the government website. No swabs in the box so ordered another box, arrived today and no bloody swabs.

Has this happened to anyone else? How did you get around it? I don’t know what bugger packed the boxes but clearly they weren’t the full ticket that day.

That’s very unusual! Are they the short stubby swabs or the ones where they are individually wrapped with the test cassette?

@Iggly I have been receiving the NHS boxes lately the throat and nose one and no swabs in the box at all.

Are the swabs not wrapped in the instruction booklet? That's what happened with the nose and throat ones for me?

Yes, every time I’ve thought something was missing, it was wedged inside or behind something else in the box!

I found them!! I guess it’s me who isn’t the full ticket. Thanks everyone.

A while ago a very disgruntled colleague moaned about there being no solution in her boxes of LFT's, luckily I had read on here that they were often tucked inside the booklet so could direct her.

Happens to the best of you OP.

@Whitefire every little helps. Thank you 😊
