7% of compatible mobile are estimated not to have received the alert, Three say they have fixed their issue.

I got a batch of delayed sms from EE all at the exact same time last night, asked family members and they had same thing, so seems this potentially screwed up EE's sms delivery platform.

Possibly, but could also be completely unconnected. FWIW I was getting SMS over EE last night without any issues. If all your family members are in the same general area it could simply be a local network issue. It happens.

Maybe but its a big coincidence.

The last SMS I got on time was on the morning of the test, Sunday morning, then starting from that I was supposed to get about 6am Monday morning, up until last SMS sent to me by passport office on Wednesday, I had 6 SMS arriving not long before I made the post batched together.

One of my family members is 200 miles away from me.

correction, about 6 hours before I made the post around 7pm, didnt realise I posted so late, sorry.
