A little while ago I stopped being able to access the i newspaper.

Same for me. Thailand 3BB fibre, no VPN.

Works ok for me no vpn

Yeah, it's ok for me too on ToT fibre, no VPN. Yup, BoJo in a typical pose! 

 

Usually that message appears when a site is geo-blocking, that would normally be fixed using a VPN.

 

@damole have you verified that your VPN really is coming out in the UK? 

Works fine on True using Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Brave, must be you.

Should have checked before posting but just tried now and it works in Edge and Chrome, no VPN.  I have had issues with some other websites not working in Firefox occasionaly.

I have 3BB fibre and it is the same on two different machines.  Just tried in a private tab on FF and it worked.  Tried in a normal tab with all extensions disabled but got the same accessed denied message.

Just remembered how I fixed it before after creating a new test profile to see it works OK. 

 

Just cleared cookies and data for the site which is an option after clicking on the padlock just before the URL.

OP

Could well be your Security Software, or maybe your Cookie settings.

All major newspapers  here

User error

clear your cookies and cache, set your VPN to the UK,  then try to open .....   should work.

Guilty as charged.

 

I do think that the feedback I received here just helped me get looking in the right direction so thanks to all for that.
