Taking the p with ordering nhs lateral flow tests

[mattandbenny]

So every day without fail a house i deliver to gets 4 or 5 of the nhs lateral flow test kits delivered. In 2022 so far i must have delivered them close to 100 kits. They must have created a tonne of email addresses to order them. You can gurantee they were the sort of people to hoard toilet paper at the start of the pandemic.

Basically is there any way to report them for taking the p*ss?

[TrueBlueTerrier]

Sadly no.

But I would check Facebook and Twitter as some aren't hoarding because they are worried. They are hoarding them to sell on even though they are free.

'The system' lets you order one pack per day per person at an address, so I assume they
can fill their boots with one order each for mum, dad, all the kids, Granny Ada, Uncle Fred,
and Well 'Ard the dog, don't think you need a seperate email for each order you can just put
you're ordering it for 'someone else'.

Yeah I have a couple in there 40s, who order pretty much every day, no idea why, big house and don't think either of them work?.

With all the contracts for chums getting dished out through the pandemic I'm surprised there hasn't been one awarded for this sort of thing.

I just reinforces what this job has taught me since I started doing it - large percentage of the public are not very bright. And unbelievably selfish. Doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.

Same here, had 1 house getting at least 2 a day for the past few months, 1 day they got 9, other days they get 4 or 5. They must have way over 100 packs.

Cant be too long now before free issue of LFT's stops, then see the difference!

End of the day, does it matter how many someone is getting? RM is being paid to deliver them

The only time you will hear a postie moaning about not having enough calls is election time

Some people are weird and take a test before and after they pop to the shops, or go for a walk
