Hi
Sorry it takes so long to get all the results.
You are correct many results come in sooner than the 7-10 days. The reason we tell people to call for results at that time is because the results line is very busy and we know all the results will be finished at that time, rather than the person calling up 2-3 times to get all their results.
If someone did get a positive result we would call them up straight away.
