I have started to get issues connecting when I try to use the mobile app. Working ok when connected wifi but when I go onto mobile internet I get a message saying the connection is insecure and that the sites security certificate is not trusted by operating system (android). Thought it may be a browser issue so tried it on chrome and firefox and getting same issue on both. Can anyone help? |

It’s because your mobile provider (O2, Vodafone etc) apply what is known as Content Control.
This will block access to anything related to gambling, adult etc. hence why you are ok on some WiFi.
You can request for the content block to be removed.
Note also that some public WiFi hotspots also block access. There is nothing you can do about this apart from switching to your 3g/4g data (if content control has been removed)
Hope that helps |

I don't believe this is an issue with my mobile provider (vodafone) as previously, when there has been an adult content bar on my phone then that is the message I have received. I can access other sites when mobile just not this one. The warning I receive is a google privacy warning saying this site is not secure. I thought it might have been google so I tried firefox but that comes up with the same warning about site security certificate being invalid so the site is not trustworthy. This issue is only with Fab. Site admins please advise. If I am unable to use the site when mobile then it severely impacts on my ability to meet and I may as well just cancel my subscription. |

I'm on ee and I've recently had that exact problem just with fab, so it more than likely is your network. Just ring your network provider and have your content block taken off. |

"It has to be your provider or wifi wouldn't work. Maybe try a vpn."
Try your sim in another mobile handset ! If it still fails, you've 100% pinpointed it to your mobile network.
I've had them insist it's all correct before but it's then been demonstrated that it's the network.
They could add the block and then remove it, for example, as a potential remedy. |

Also on EE here & all had been working well ... until today. Suddenly can't access fab or adult content videos etc (well, had to see if it was just fab  ) Will have to call them tomorrow. Been with orange & EE for close to 20 yrs so no idea why the block has suddenly come in.  |

"I have had my account checked and there is no content block on, I can access all adult content with the exception of this site
"

It's was in one David Cameron's manifesto commitments at one of the elections. No one seemed bothered about it at the time. All service providers have to enable adult blocks by default. |

I had same problem last week rung provider (Vodafone) they said was apple issue, they said was provider. In the end Vodafone have released a net watcher called secure net It’s this that is the problem, ask them to switch it off, they will also reset your content block at same time, mine been great ever since |

"I’ve got same problem since installing latest IOS update  "
And now I get a message off Fab saying it’s a provider problem that I can’t reply to!
I’ve had the issues with blocked content, but this is different, any other 18+ sites are still accessible |

"Same here, tried vpn, same again with this site and other adult sites, what do we need to do?
Call your mobile network and age verify your phone
Admin
Any update on this as get the same ?"
There is also inconsistences with the mobile networks though, I definitely have the blocks turned off yet occasionally get blocked from accessing adult sites, then it's as if once the phone connects to another tower it's all ok |
