Despite having all settings on, mine didn't go off - Nokia phone on Asda mobile

I called my mum who lives 10 mins away and hers didn't go off - Iphone on o2
One of my dads phones is on charge their with her and that didn't go off - iphone on 3

My dad is about 10 mins away from my mum (20 mins from me) in Asda on a nokia on 3 and that didn't go off
He also has a huawei on 02 but that one did go off

:oops: 😅

I had a very short alert at 2.55 and then a longer one at 2.59 with a warning on the screen too. My sister didn’t get a single alert!
iPhone 14 and 11 (my sisters).

Yes, I think the iPhones were just noise and the Android had the voice. The Android was also ever so slightly later than the iPhones.

well turning your phone off doesn't work. Apparently it delivers when you turn it back on. its been described to me as a tiny beep and a loud buzzer so odd to see there's a difference

Mine went off at 3.01 after everyone else’s in Lidl. I just thought it was a shop noise at first 💀

I’d say a mixture of those two 😂

No one in my house got it. Different iPhones, 11, 7 and the newest, all on 3 mobile all had alerts switched on.
 
Is this a form of (un)natural selection?
A few huddled in the nuclear shelters by now 😬

So what is the point of this if it doesn't work on older mobile models? if there is an emergency all the old buggers with the out dated phones will die. 😊

My poor son with asd panicked ran and tried to hide so didn't go down too well here
All the people sneering at those of us who were anxious this and are now gloating that it wasn't even a big deal don't seem to take things like this into account, which is depressing.
