Hi, for anyone in northwest UK who needs Covid and FTF I highly recommend Dam Health. ( they do have branches elsewhere) I used the Liverpool one. In and out in 10 minutes. Only throat swap which you hardly feel. £99.  Got my results back in 3hrs30 mins . The original certificate has both the Covid result and FTF on but if you ask them for separate ones for Thailand use they will separate.

Excellent service.

Answer summary

A user recommends Dam Health for Covid and FTF testing in the UK, particularly highlighting their Liverpool branch for its efficient service, quick results, and comfortable testing method (throat swab). Comments reflect mixed opinions on the acceptability of throat swabs, with users confirming satisfactory testing experiences and timely results. Others share their plans to use the service as well.

I can agree. Tested at the Liverpool clinic at 9am and received my result 5pm the same day. Super quick and easy and states RT-PCR on the test certificate.
