    @mvonschantz I have a dual SIM phone, I don't know if I was to receive one message on my phone or from the different networks as I only received one, and my second phone did not receive anything and it is on the Three network. I can't even say if it came on the Three or GiffGaff network.

    @TheBaoth @giffgaff Hi Joruus, this is not a giffgaff issue. Many others did not receive this.

    @RhysCurtis14 I’m on GiffGaff as well. Strange as loads of people down in Cornwall didn’t get theirs.

    Hi @giffgaff just wondering if there are reasons why I received no emergency alert today at 3pm ish? got multiple giff gaff phones and an iPad that received no alert, and curious if outside of it being a failure with the goverment system, if there is another reason?

    @gingerninja1974 @giffgaff It appears it’s the set up of the phone. Which for a emergency alert seems to be failing! You can only receve it if you enable the function in settings, you can only get it if your using a 4G of 5G signal. Not well thought out plan at all!

    Hello, you lovely @giffgaff people. I know I'm not alone in not having received the #emergencyalert message on my phone, however my wife next to me did on her Giffgaff Android mobile; presumably the signal is from the same mast? It's probably a Gov't ****-up as usual... Hey ho.

    @tech604boy @marxfemkitty It's funny, it went off for people who had disabled the alerts, then loads of people never got the alert at all. From what I've heard, Giffgaff users got it a minute early, and me and many others on Three never got it at all. Wouldn't be by the UK gov if it worked properly, eh?

    @g0g0mi I got it and I'm on Giffgaff, my mum who is on EE didn't get it and neither did one of my friends but idk what network she's on. It seems to be very inconsistent
