Notification of nothing

[FrosteeMARIA]

I keep getting this annoying notification;

"Configuration Update
Recommended app updates
Tap here to install app from service provider"

Tapping the notification takes me to the following screen;

This keeps happening 2-3 times a day and is driving me mad. There is a general phone setting that shows recent notifications, but it's not listed there either so no way to block it.

Phone is Samsung Galaxy A70, Android 10, O2.

Google search comes up with bugger all.

Any ideas?

@FrosteeMARIA,

The fix below is for a Galaxy S9, but it may work if you have Galaxy Apps on your A70.

Silence annoying Samsung notifications on your Galaxy S9 forever

These aren't your typical Android app alerts.

Stop tapping the notification...?

Apologies if that sounds slightly facetious.

It's the only way to get rid of it....

Thanks, that might be it - went into Galaxy apps and there are some updates waiting. Odd that the notification doesn't take you to them though. I assumed it was a carrier update from O2, as it says "provider".
Will see if this fixes it in any case. Thanks!

Sounds like it's using the service provider alert channel - try turning it off in notifications/advanced/emergency alerts and see if that cures it

I get exactly that with the same phone running the same Android version.

So far, so good - going into the Galaxy Apps seems to have solved it......for now!
