I was going to book a Day 2 PCR test from ‘Simply Test Me’ in U.K. and they actually have no more tests for December! I’m flying on 21 December.

There are lots of providers out there. Can anyone recommend a good ‘cheap’ one please? 

Thank you. 

We used Randox. Arrived in the UK on Friday Dec 10th. took PCR test at home, neighbour dropped it in a Randox drop box at 10am on the 11th. Got confirmation at 10pm same day that they had received the tests at the Lab. 2am Sunday mine confirmed passed, 10am Sunday, partners confirmed as passed.

If you put FLYRYANAIR in the promo code you get a discount (even if you don't fly with Ryanair)

Hope this helps

I’ve always had a good service from them especially since the unfavourable reviews - think they were overwhelmed as cheap service. Having used them several times recently i would say they’ve got their act together. 

we used expert medical, delay on one result but i think it is sheer volume otherwise pleased. 

Please be aware that delivery services are very busy at the moment so order tests early to leave plenty of time for delivery in England otherwise your test may not be there when you arrive. Some deliveries are taking a week to arrive (from mine and friends experience)

Do you mean you are flying to Spain and returning to uk? If so at the moment it is an antigen to fly test you need in Spain to return to uk. I suggest you Google local farmacias and see if you can get a test booked in ASAP.

Thank you everyone for your help. I ordered from Randox but it will now have to do for next time that I go. 

After all that, my son had to go into hospital for respiratory problems relating to Covid. He had it 3 weeks ago.
He is fine and at home now but because of a lowered immune system he can’t receive any visitors. 

I wonder what the rules will be like when I finally make it over!! 

Thank you all again, much appreciated. 
Happy Christmas xx
