If any one ever doubts the origin of a text you can check on .Gov to see what updates they are putting out - here's the one that confirms the sms messages. www.gov.uk/government/news/coronavirus-sms-messages

You can sign up for updates too, you'll get an email when advice is updated. If you do sign up, I'd recommend a daily update and not every time something is updated or you could find yourself getting several emails a day.

Remember folks, half of the population have below average intelligence...

PracticallyPeeps · 24/03/2020 14:34

Getting this text has nothing to do with having an HMRC app or a Government Gateway account. You're getting this text because you are in the UK and are in possession of a mobile phone.

STAY HOME.

Geepipe · 24/03/2020 14:34

Dp.did i didnt. I told him its probably because he cant be trusted they needed to remind him again. Grin
