    I'm disappointed. I forgot to switch my phone off. I wanted to know if it still worked with your phone off :(.

    It was funny watching the crowd shot at the cricket with everybody looking at their phone. Must have been a heck of a noise if 15,000 of them went off at the same time, or whatever the crowd is there.

    Me too. I was at a footy match and didn't hear a thing, either from mine or anyone else's.
    Saw the message at half time.

    Opted out last time, I'd rather take my chances than having more of my data spread about, if its something big like one of the mad men has pushed a button and alert on my phone ain't going to save me melting.

    Mine didn't go off last time or this time and haven't changed any settings to stop it happening.

    It did make a noise, and it was at full volume. Surprised you didn't hear it but then again, the game wasn't at Oakwell of course
