National 3pm alarm/test

I'm not looking for a discussion (row) about the rights & wrongs.
But me & the wife never got one. 
How about others?

  • Nothing 
  • Yep me and Mrs RM got the alert, bang on 3
  • I got one. Do you have an old mobile?
  • Yeah I got it
  • It arrived early at 2.59 and only lasted for about 5 seconds.
  • I got mine dead on 3pm but the missus didn’t.  Her alert came along 2 minutes later. We assumed it was because of different networks. Have you got the alerts turned off in your settings? 
  • Nothing for me or Mrs JB

  • Pretty sure Alexa went off as well as I think my work phones in the lounge. My dad has a push button doro (2g I think) and he didn’t get an alert.

    5 years old, but it is Chinese (Huawei).
  • Some bastard set it off early! Made me jump! 
  • Didn't get it, partner did. Brother and sister got one on their work phones but not personal. Parents both got one. Around about a 60% success rate 
  • Got one on both my phones.

    bang on 3pm on all 5 phones in the house.
  • Nothing received by me, the wife or my son. All with id Mobile, so through the Three network.
  • No for me
  • I got one at about 3.02……followed by an announcement by a woman with a full on American accent!!!
    I ask you, how ridiculous is that? 🤔

    Forgot about it and made a cup of tea. Came back at 3.01 to see an emergency message on the phone, so don't know if it came with noise.

    That's a freeking dumbass idea, partner
  • Both my wife and I got it at 1459 on EE. Son got it two minutes later on Tesco mobile.
  • Got mine about 3.12pm better late than never, but suspect I would have been fcuked going outside obliviously if it was for real. Just shows how sh*t our networking is here in the UK.
  • All those who didn’t get one were obviously previously singled out as unsuitable and deemed not high priority.
    C class or lower I assume.
