Has access to the BBC iPlayer via VPN been stopped. It worked a couple of days ago when using safe surf. Now it doesn't.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply. There is no error message I just get the "BBC iPlayer only works in the UK"

I am not in the UK so this is technically correct. However, it worked a couple of days ago. I read that the BBC is blocking VPN even for UK based VPN users. Is this correct? Have your servers been blocked?
