Does anyone know of any companies that will provide a package of PCR tests at a reduced rate eg. for outbound/inbound travel, day 2 and day 8, rather than paying for individual tests. I'm getting so confused with the information, and the costs - it seems about £50/test is average - are making the possibility of our holiday almost prohibitive.
We were due to go to France in a couple of weeks - two fully vaccinated adults and a 16 year old - self-drive via Eurotunnel, taking our caravan, so airport testing or tests provided by package operators are not an option. Given the change of status for France last night, we would also have to add in a 5th test to end quarantine early (although we both WFH so fortunately quarantine is not an issue). I'm not clear on the rationale for testing on Day 2 and day 8 if you're quarantining anyway, given that you have to have a negative test to get back into the UK? It all seems like some massive scam for rinsing as much ££ out of you as possible for daring to leave the country!
If anyone has any advice please, I would be very grateful! Many thanks.
