Getting COVID test records

Has anyone had any luck getting their COVID test records?

During the pandemic I submitted dozens of tests, as I was testing weekly for most of it. A few were logged by my employer who has provided them, and I have email receipts for some.

Test & Trace seems to have disappeared though. Anyone know how to contact them to get the test results I submitted via the website?

They aren't on my NHS record as far as I can see.

    Presumably these are the latflow tests where you declare yourself if you passed or failed with no secondary checks to confirm you answered honestly?

  • i *think* you can still access tests carried out at a GP surgery which will be on your records. I doubt you will be able to get the latflow ones. 


  • Did you get text message confirmation for the tests you submitted?  Might be a bit of a nightmare if you need to print them out but there might be ways of doing it or apps that can help.

    The only other records I have are for recent tests, that are on my record on SystmOnline - but I don't know if that's because I submitted them through the Zoe app or not (as well as using the QR codes to submit to the NHS, which is why I don't know which method put it on my record).  And earlier ones submitted by both methods aren't on there, the GP surgery evidently hadn't enabled that particular function yet.
  • Thanks, yes, self administered lateral flow tests, except for a couple which were PCR tests with a sample sent off.

    The Vaccine Damage Scheme has accepted that I was injured, but said it was probably because I got COVID. So I need to show that I was regularly testing and didn't have COVID when it kicked off. I think it's balance of probabilities, so even a lateral flow test should tip the scales far enough.
