Emergency alert

Watched some of this on the news last night. People complaining they got it in the first place, whilst others moaning they didn't get it at all.

I suppose this is why they were testing it, to check for issues

Indeed, I think the word test is important here.

“What’s that f***Ing noise?”
“I don’t know. Is it your phone”
“Nah, I think it’s your phone”

All together “ Aahhh”

Mother-in-law got into a bit of a fix with it.
She was cooking a pork joint, following a recipe on her phone.
When the alarm went off, she got a bit flustered and accidentally put the phone in the oven along with the pork.
Surprisingly it still worked - albeit with a lot of crackling!

No alert on any of the 3 mobiles we have between us at home. The wife and I are on the same network so might account for ours but my son is on a different one and didn't get it either.

Those not getting it seem to be either with provider 3 mobile or who own phones that either cannot get 4G or are in areas where there is no 4G.

Yep IDMobile which uses Three. Son's is on Lebara though which I think is on Vodafone, he might have switched his phone off though
