Emergency Alerts Service

Planned for Tuesday 22 June 2021

Across the UK

Mobile phone networks are testing emergency alerts on behalf of the UK Government between 1pm - 2pm.
You may get a test alert.
Your device may make a loud siren-like sound.

The alert will say:

This is a mobile network operator test of the Emergency Alerts service. You do not need to take any action. To find out more, search for gov.uk/alerts

* Take no action *

Do not panic.

I was alerted to a low tyre pressure on my car while driving, Nearly jumped out of my skin

Thanks for the alert jo anne

The power went out at home this morning. I received a text from Welfare Company or something tell me that there was 'an electricity cut (No lights or power from the wall sockets)..'    

I received the message when the power came back on as my mobile runs from a router which was off for a couple of hours.

Very confusing (.com)
