I’m glad there are only 22 providers for now! Although I doubt a few more won’t pop up in the next weeks.
The first time I scrolled through the PCR approved providers, back in summer, was such a nightmare - 400+ companies (half of which didn’t exist or displayed different prices once on their website).
This will save people time and hopefully some money. Where I live we only had 2-3 authorised providers when travelling back last winter, and as a result prices stayed the same as there was no major competition. It also saved us some headaches trying to decide who to go with.
I hope the UK list doesn’t grow anytime soon.
