Did you receive it?
The government tested its UK Emergency Alerts service on Sunday, but not everyone received it and some had other concerns.
It wasn’t purely down to which phone network as some appeared to suggest. David Scott said: “Wife and myself both have the same phone, both on the same network – hers worked, mine didn’t.”Some people pressed a button quickly to stop the sound and the notification vanished before they could read what it said., including Toni Hunter who was sat in the Crown & Arrows pub in Lincoln at the time of the alert.
“All still got the message flash up asking if we wanted to have emergency alerts in future. Two of ours disappeared before we could click yes. Good job they did a trial run first so they can get it right when there is a real emergency.”
