Exactly my friend. We also need to be wary of central bank digital currency too, because the government are pushing that too.

[@superninja493]

I was at a Dobbies and heard this noise, I thought it’d be deafening but it wasn’t, I had it turned off on my phone so it didn’t go, but my mum had her alerts on and it didn’t blare for her, my dad got it though, so did most other people in the cafe at the time

[@noreon8379]

first alerts, then theyll start restricting access to phones.

[@revindarwish9220]

🥴

[@PiperX1X]

I never received it until 3.16 pm, but this is what’s confusing, my spare Motorola phone which has no SIM card in went off at 3.01pm but my iPhone which is my main mobile didn’t sound until as I mentioned 3.16🤔🤔 and a friend down the road still hasn’t received it!

[@roadman9135]

It’s to alert us we’re getting nuked 😢

[@jonnygti]

Me and my wife’s iPhones didn’t get it, and just asked my sister, she had hers off anyway, and her friend said he didn’t get it either. Still waiting on my mums text to see if her my dad got there’s. Bloody shit show, they can’t even get the emergency alert system working 😂

[@fuzzshi]

Probably because your phones were on silent or you just cant afford the bewer versions

[@geekygalaxy4307]

@@fuzzshi Your phone being on silent won't affect it

[@MostLocalDummy]

probably cuz of sim card cuz i dont have sim and i didnt even hear the sound

[@jonnygti]

@@fuzzshi what are you blabbering on about! Firstly they’ve already said, it doesn’t matter if your phone is on silent/vibrate, it’ll still get the alerts, secondly, my wife has a 12 pro max, and I have a 14 pro max. It doesn’t matter what phone you have, if it’s a smart phone it’ll get the alerts

[@jonnygti]

@@MostLocalDummy I’ve since read it could be a network issue, some networks didn’t sent out the alerts

I was somewhere else in my house when this happened abn all I could hear was just a bunch of vibrations from upstairs but suddenly stopped so thought nothing of it Later I went upstairs and found some random alert on my phone and I was confused as to how it happened since I had covid exposures off but instead it was a different alert 😔

[@thomaswalker1258]

Worked on my phone but not as loud as that. Probably half volume rather than full volume. Mine was an android phone

[@lovelybitofbugle219]

[@LektroiD]

Nearly caused a major accident on the motorway (cars ahead of me and behind veering out of lane, nearly went off the road, I presume because they were looking down to see what the alarm was, then swerved back on, almost causing a pile-up). Totally unnecessary; we don't get hurricanes or tsunamis in this country. Irresponsible government!

Could be handy to warn us if Boris Johnson wants to be Prime Minister again 😅
