However government has assured people that if they do receive a message, not to take any action
The Isle of Man is not included in the UK's Emergency Alert test that's expected later today.
However government has assured people that if they do receive a message, not to take any action.
In some cases where a resident's phone is connected to a UK network signal because of their location, they may receive one of these messages.
The UK wide test is scheduled for 3pm - the alerts will produce sound and vibration for around 10 seconds.
