The government website is clear
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-testing-for-people-travelling-to-england
As long as the company can provide the results as detailed in the above link then you'll be fine
Information that the test result must include
Your test result must be in either English, French or Spanish. Translations will not be accepted.
You must provide the original test result notification. It must include the following information:
your name, which should match the name on your travel documents
your date of birth or age
the result of the test
the date the test sample was collected or received by the test provider
the name of the test provider and their contact details
confirmation of the device used for the test, or that the test was a PCR test
If the test result does not include this information you may not be able to board, and may not be able to travel to England. If you arrive without a test result that includes this information, you might have to pay a £500 fine.

Need someone to comment that has returned from yesterday which is when the tests has changed again on the government website, it’s all a money making game and totally contradicting, I’m still no nearer to what I need, I contacted the c19 site that sells the tests and their reply was check the government website.

Have used it myself - no problems.
Trouble with these, a bit like taking bait, you can never be certain till you pass through customs. As you say Gov website does rule them out regardless of what the company says.

Friend of mine purchased it and used it successfully last week.
I noticed it was also endorsed by the bailiff at Abbey lakes saying their guests have been using it .

Has anyone got the c19 test to take to France for the return, the government site says tests must not be purchased in the uk to test on return but on the c19 website it says theirs are approved all overly complicated and contradictory.

You can buy food in France believe it or not. And unlike much of the UK supermarket shelves are fully stocked😂😂😂😂 But on a more serious note I wouldn't have thought a few packets of bacon and sausage will get you a night in the cells.

Cool, we will finally get to the farm lake on the 4th Sept now.
We are going by euro tunnel, has anyone risked taking food over for their trip and been stopped etc ?
Bait wise the lake supplies it so will be safe on that front.
Good luck to all those who can now finally get out there, with no restrictions on way home 🙌...

Day 8 not required if double jabbed, this is from gvmt website:
France from Sunday 8 August
If you arrive in England from 4am Sunday 8 August, and you are fully vaccinated in the UK, USA or Europe, you will not need to:
quarantine on arrival in England
take a day 8 Covid-19 test
You must still book and take a day 2 Covid-19 test.

Thanks for that tip, I didn’t realise you could do that
Save me venturing into town before returning home and as you say at £29 it’s not badly priced either

What's the cheapest way to book the day 2/8 tests (is day 8 still required)?
|

If it's eurotunnel you'll likely not be allowed to travel if the tests are not booked or the locator form completed.
Not sure on the other crossings and how they are checking etc.
