If you are suddenly unable to access the site on 4g mobile data and/or receive a message such as "insecure connection" or "invalid certificate" or "timeout" or similar, you have been blocked from accessing "adult" sites by your mobile network or internet provider.
Some mobile networks have started applying adult blocks to mobile accounts that have been fine for years.
You need to contact your mobile network to age-verify your phone or remove the block on adult content. Details below
It can take up to 10 minutes for an block to be removed on your phone by your network, and they may ask you to turn off your phone and turn it on for the new settings to apply.

Just to point something out about EE, if you ring 150 and choose to speak an advisor you don't need a credit card, they just asked me for my details and a reassurance that I won't allowed minors to use my phone and my content block was removed. |

I've had this a few times with virgin, it blocks for no reason then it tends to work a few hours later so I put it down to a glitch on the phone servers. if that don't work then its best to clear your phone cache and do a phone restart. |

Click home and choose the accept button on the screen. Wait a moment then click home again to be taken to your homescreen on browser as normal. Enjoy fab on mobile data |

I'm totally baffled here ... I can access any 18+/adult material on my Samsung 4g with Virgin, but when I had texted for code it charged me £15 (3 × £5) on that one day and no code came through... I just don't think texting from any network is advisable?!?!?!?
Anyone else had problems with charges???????

Couldn't work out what had happened the other day as we had been on the site on a few hours earlier. Managed to have the restrictions lifted from Vodafone.. |

I'm on EE and have no problem updating my site support by text and it only charges me 1 x £5 so I'd query it with them if I was you.
As for adult content block,it happened to me once so I just rang them up and they took the adult content block off straight away for me without any problems.
Hope this helps |

"What about giffgaff network?"
Open the giffgaff app or site. Log in. Choose "My Account". In the settings is "Allow adult content" which will have the word on or off next to it.
If you click to turn it on, you can use your passport or driving licence number to do it automatically. Otherwise you'll need to speak to an agent. |
