You also need to be aware that you are monitoring a region - not a particular beacons.

So if you have 3 beacons which share the same proximityUUID and your region is defined as only proximityUUID (without major and minor values) you will get notified only in two situations:

1. No beacons from the region were in range and first beacon/beacons gets discovered (didEnterRegion:)

2. One or more beacons from the region were in range and they all went out of sight for ~30 seconds (didExitRegion:)
