NHS app error cost me my £1,500 week in sun

A GUTTED mum-of-three who booked a last-minute trip to Fuerteventura for a week of sun was turned away at the airport after her booster jab failed to show up on her Covid-19 app.

Rebecca Dixon, from Ashton-under Lyne, spoke of her disappointment after she was told she would not be able to board her flight at Manchester Airport on Tuesday.

Rebecca, an NHS adult and social care worker, said she was one of the first to be jabbed, and claims she was given her booster last September at a walk-in service.

Assuming her vaccination status would show up on her Covid phone app, she confidently booked the weeklong trip to the Spanish island with two of her daughters, Lottie and Ella, and their friend Molly.
