Second Emergency Alert

griffzillo — Mon, 24 Apr 2023 09:15:23 GMT

Hi,

I'm not sure how, but I ended up getting a second Severe Alert at 19:26 yesterday (along with the original at 14:59).

Any ideas why?!

Hi @griffzillo

Welcome to the community.

I'm not sure why that would have happened. This was a test and Emergency Alerts are only one of the many ways in which the UK Government and emergency services will inform you of public safety issues in your local area.

Understand about it being a test etc, however getting another alert in the evening shouldn't have happened so something has gone wrong on the network?

Maybe provide feedback about your experience?
