Covid vaccination appointment texts

Posted by:  - Posted on:

NHS services are using text messages as one of the ways to invite people in for their Covid vaccination. A genuine message will never ask for your bank details or request a payment. It may ask you to confirm your date of birth to make sure the message has reached the intended person. Text messages for our local GP-led site may include a weblink from ‘accurx.thirdparty.nhs.uk’.

If you receive a text message which looks suspicious, you can forward this free of charge to the 7726 SMS reporting service.
