Each time I am able to select a date but once entering personal details on the final step I get the error "Problem Saving Booking" (all fields completed). Tried it yesterday and just now and still getting the same error (tried on my phone too but same problem).

I read somewhere that Lloyds are having problems with demand but you would think their app would work rather than let you go through the whole booking process only to display a vague message. :arrrghhh.
Happened when I first tried. Second time I changed date & was able to book time slot. This was then confirmed by email.
Great thanks for that. I have played around with the dates and then the time slots popped up and I managed to book slot ok. :thumbup

Can't book at Lloyd's or Boots, keep trying but very unlikely. No idea when we can get a jab but could be as late as the New Year.

I'm now entitled to a free NHS jab now because I've been diagnosed with asthma this year. Never had a jab and only had flu once in my life. Why have I got a feeling I'll get flu this year :left:

Booked fine on Lloyds website this morning and have confirmation email through. The process wasnt easy though (see post above). Keep trying different dates until you see the time slots appear below.

Dropped in Lloyds Pharmacy on the way home from duty with my voucher to book an appointment, she said I can do it now? So worth a try.

Wouldn't it be nice as we're classed as "Key Workers", and everyone says what a wonderful job we're all doing, if it might be possible to just get a jab at your local Doctors Surgery/Pharmacy. Perhaps even one that you deliver the mail to? :hmmmm

May work OK in the Smoke but out in the sticks most of us have to put in at least a round 40 mile trip to get our Free Jab. :cuppa

Had mine on the 1st, had it last year, haven't had as much as a sniffle all year apart from having a bad cold for the last 2 weeks when last years would have worn off.

Took me several attempts to make an appointment due to issues on Lloyds pharmacy flu link not working, eventually booked an appointment and as i live close to the pharmacy went in today to see if all will be ok.
Erm....sorry but flu vaccines low in supply so can you phone up on the day you booked to see if we have some left? :nana :nana
Think this advice is not to be sniffed at! :roll: :roll:

If anyone needs flu job quick asda have loads but you will have to pay, it's only £8.00, I rang all lloyd's and none of them had stock or could tell me when they are getting it, as it can take a couple of weeks after the jab for your system to create enough antibodies thought it was wise to get it done sooner rather than later the way things are at moment, apparently lloyd's are prioritizing elderly and at risk fair enough, but asda has loads, must just have a lot more money and buying power.

At the moment, we are currently unable to take any further bookings for the winter flu vaccination service, we will update this page as soon as new appointments are available.
