Asda tests! Grrrr

Unfortunately for me my nearest supermarket by far is Asda. Has anyone got any experience of these tests? Im such a poas addict i cant buy the first responsE and clearblue all the time and i also hear bad things about the cheap internet tests.
I have had so many cruel cruel pink evaps on them some of which even showed up within the time frame!
This morning i tested and there was no line in either window???? but i cuD see a bit of pink. when i took the test apart there was the control line slap bang in the middle of the test and it looks to me like there was never a test strip on it!! as after squinting at many tests i know u can usually see a shiny strip the same width as the control.
In one pic (with the red background) is a normal BFN (if u look closely u can see a pink evap as usual!!!) the other is the test i did this morning with one pink line in the middle.

When you put the Asda test back in the case, does the line, line up with the control line?
If not maybe ring Asda customer service.

I had one like that too.....i did the test and nothing come up in both boxes....being the poas whore that i am i cracked open the case and there was a line in the middle but the plastic casing was hiding it.......even thouhg there so cheap i cant beleive there so un reliable.i thought there would of been stricter rules and guidelines to prevent all these pink evaps and no show of linesbeing hidden by the casings.....at least with the ics you havnt gotta crack open the case to have a nosey and there really cheap!.im gunna give it a few days and retest.........arghhhhhhhhhhhhh stupid pregnancy tests!
