    Thanks for posting the link.

    I also forgot to mention that test free tests are only for the under 25s - so if you aren't, but know people who are let them know too. Because most people who have it don't realise and then pass on the infection, it's more of an pandemic than people realise!

    I didn't know I had it till I had a test. It's so embarrassing having to let people know that they should get tested.:o:o:o

    Just saw that other post... but the top half is going on about an expired Boots trial, so I think the freetest.me service deserves a new post! :D

    You can also get it free at the doctors we do it for 16-25 yr olds, you only have to take in a urine sample....

    I went for "the usual" at the Docs last week and they offered it automatically, even though I'm nearly 50 and said I hadn't been near a bloke for about 2 years :(

    She did "all the tests" on me - kind of a big MoT due to the fact I'd never had any tests ever before and I think she was a bit bored.

    :)

    I'm 25 and was about to book into my GP for this when I saw this freebie. It's only for those up to 24 though, was going to charge me £25. Looks like I shall be booking in at the docs then...

    Actually, I'm 25 too - it's not like they're going to come knocking and check your age right ;)

    They have none in my area at the moment but you can get tested for free at an NHS walk-in GUM clinic anyway.
