All day today i cant access this site using my laptop or with wifi on my phone but using my phones 3g its fine. There are also a couple of porn sites that now refuse to load. Unless i drunkenly managed to do something with the computer/router settings last night, which i doubt, it must be something to do with vm.
Is anyone else with vm having this problem?[/url]
Edit: just found out other vm customers have no problem getting in. Anybody have any ideas what could be causing the problem?

Just been finding out its a nationwide problem...some sites are not loading. Wierd thing is different people have different sites blocked, although wiki seems to a really common one. Expected fix time is 8am tomorrow.

Lol. Seriously, I can't view Fruitchat on me mobile - wifi or 3G....it just redirects me to an O2 page. Its strange though because I once could and yeah, I used to be able to watch porn on me mobile too.
But not anymore.

Yep im blocked on me iphone 3g, but you shouldn't have any problems with wifi on your phone, they only have adult control through their network.

Ive got that with 02 still, no grot sites until I go in the shop and proove that I'm over 18. Fruitchat was originally one of the sites that was blocked but a few days later it was OK.
I rang them and they refused to do it over the phone unless I gave them a debit card no. to prove I was over 18. I'm a cash man, so that didnt help!! What made me laugh was that they said I could use somebody elses card no.!!
Brilliant.
