The cost of triple testing and quarantine on arrival makes a journey to the UK to see family and friends impossible. Only the rich can afford to travel and that is not leveling up.Rosalyn Beck (Alicante, 2021-05-18)

I live in Spain but have family who I would like to go and see and for them to visit me, the cost of PCR tests are making this preventable and even though we have been vaccinated I think the testing will go on for sometime to come.Anne Bennett (Mazarron, 2021-05-20)

Providers of the PCR test should not be allowed to make huge profit from a pandemic which has caused so much misery.Dorothy Bannatyne (Mallorca, 2021-05-20)

It is outrageous that these companies are making profits from the pandemic. In Denmark you get as many tests as you want and they are free. Wouldn’t we all be safer if we knew who had it?Morna MacDonald (Benalmedena, 2021-05-20)

I am a British citizen, a widowed pensioner. I live alone in Spain. I have not seen my adult children and 6 beautiful grandchildren since September 2019. I am afraid I will die without ever seeing them, let alone holding them again, because of the extortionate cost of these PCR tests. It is utterly outrageous.Diana CRADDOCK (Yunquera, 2021-05-20)

I agree that the cost of these tests is prohibitive...having travelled back to the UK in Feb this year and having to pay for a test to leave Spain and then pay for 2 more in the UK,on day 2 and 8 of our return,we find that as pensioners,"it is a wee bit too pricey!"Greg Hallam (Ipswich, 2021-05-21)

The cost of the tests is unacceptable.After 2 vaccination we still need to do it and it ruins people's lives .Government should provide free tests on the entry to UK to save aviation and mental health far more dangerous and on bigger scale than covid

I'm signing because the PCR test could cost as much as the ferry to get me to Spain, doubling the cost of my visit to find a small property to retire to, to escape Tory BritainDavid Candlish (Nantwich, 2021-05-22)

It is abhorrent for companies to be making huge profits out of a world-wide disaster. Either test prices should be subsidised or a standard price introduced which provides a fair profit to the suppliers whilst being affordable for customers.Jean Anderson (Mollina, 2021-05-22)

There needs to be single fee for these tests. I have been unable to visit my family for over 18months and even when flights open etc the extra costs for these tests will make it difficult for me to travel to the UK to see my family. I don't understand where some will charge €69 yet others €246 it's disgusting.Sharon Elliott (Alicante, 2021-05-24)

my parents live in spain and with the cost of tests they cannot afford to come to the ukRichard HURREN (SOUTHAMPTON, 2021-05-24)

I have had a house in Spain for over 30 years and have made many friends there. As a single person, with no local family in UK, these friendships are a lifeline. As a pensioner, I simply cannot afford the cost of these COVID tests. I have had both vaccinations.Jan Adams Smith (Milton Keynes, 2021-05-24)
#503
These tests should be affordable for all. The cost can make travelling unaffordable for many and it is very important to get tested to stop this pandemic.Wendy Miller (Alicante, 2021-05-25)
#505
My family are all in the UK and I have been separated from them for 18 months. Part of the the reason I can’t go for another few months is making sure I can save enough money for all the tests on top of the flight prices that I have to fork out for.Dominic Hazell (Santa Lucía De Tirajana, 2021-05-26)
#509
I am signing this petition because since returning to my home in Spain on the 17/03/2020 I have had my Vueling flights cancelled twice and awaiting my re-arranged flight to Cardiff scheduled for the 14-07-2021 to go ahead.Les Hallen (29640, 2021-05-26)

I'm a 72 year old mother and this is the first time in my life I've been away from my children. It's been a nightmare not seeing them for 18 months. Please make the tests affordable so that it's possible to travel between Spain and the UK .Kathleen Ullah (Alicante, 2021-05-30)

I want to be reunited with my family. I have a new 4 week old grandson who I'm desperate to see.

#549
I am missing my family and friends; the freedom to travel to and from the UK on a regular basis has been taken away due to the coronavirus and now made even more inaccessible by the high costs of testing and the need for repeated testing makes it extremely expensive. A short trip is out of the question especially with quarantine.Pamela Meade (Pulpi, 2021-06-01)
#554
It is outrageous to allow free hiking up of prices for a mandatory test required by the government. The profit margins being taken far exceed what is reasonable, and create a barrier to family reunion after long absence.Evelyn Traveller (Anduze, 2021-06-01)
#555
I hope to be able to visit my family in California including two little grandsons I haven't met yet. The cost of the tests is off-putting. I've had both vaccinations.Linda Christie (ASHFORD, 2021-06-01)
#558
The whole test thing is a scam!Can’t believe it’s legal and being supported by governments.
British government now wants 2 tests! Why? If you’re negative on the first and isolating, how can you catch it?!?!?!
Scam. And the gullible masses accept it.
Pathetic.

Although the price of a flight is affordable, many of us simply cannot afford the extortionate costs of testing to enter UK. Prices should be free, or at least, capped by law as many are making a huge profit at people's expense.John Bushby (Albox, 2021-06-06)
