Whenever we try to access the site on a mobile it says 'this site can't provide a secure connection' and 'm.fabswingers.com sent an invalid response'.
This began on the day of the BBC article, so originally we assumed that there was just a high number of visitors overwhelming the server but it hasn't changed.
I had thought possibly the site had been blocked but strangely we can access it with no problems if using a UK VPN from thr local area.
We've tried deleting web history / cookies but no change.
Any ideas?

We can access the site on Wifi but not on mobile network (or the other way round!). We get a connection/security/certificate error.
If you get a connection/security/certificate error accessing the site on 4G/mobile-data but not on WiFi (or, the other way round!) it means your mobile network (or ISP if on wifi) has blocked your device from adult content. Some mobile networks have started to do this to phones that have always been 18+ verified and some seemingly do it randomly. If you contact your mobile network on their helpline or via their website, you will see how to age verify your mobile account. The error you see is your ISP trying to display a message which does not show on a secure/ssl site like Fab. We've created a special page you can view which isn't served over secure/ssl so should be able to see the underlying message, here.
Once you have age verified your phone, your network usually advises turning the phone off then on again. It sometimes takes a few minutes then for the block to be removed. |

Hi - "Check to see if you have an adult content filter enabled” is correct - or at least it was in my case.
I could access the site on wifi but not cellular.
I went to my provider’s website (in my case Lebara), in the help section found “Why is some content blocked?”
That lead me to the online age verification system, which, when completed, enabled me to access the site whenever I needed to. Hope that helps. |
