    The website seems to be down again and didn't like my proxy!
    And I wanted to pay my "fine", what a shame.

    I tried ten random proxies - none get through.

    The above is probably static text. The site is down, not blocked.

  • Same here but as I', changing isp tomorrow I'll see if I can get back on.

    I'm also thinking that. That or he has blocked all IP's and is planning to open the site only to people who contact him by phone or email so he can unblock them, or arrange payment by email/phone. Perhaps the idea of using vehicle reg number and ticket number didn't work out or was too tedious for them to inserting the data onto the server.

    It's good to know that we're rattling them. Eventually they'll crack and go away. Victims will wonder why they can't just get onto the site and pay. Doesn't make them look like the legitimate company they profess to be.

    I've just tried to access the website and it's 'blocked' for me as well :p

    And considering that's the first time I have been on that site, so he wouldn't have gotten my 'Mac' address in order to 'ban' it.

    Banned me as well. I feel a deep hurt inside :(

    Although I have paid a vist there before to view the 'goings on'! Maybe someone clamped his server.

    There's no IP or MAC address (hahaha.. yeah nice one!) checking on that page. It's just a static page telling everyone they're blocked.

    What planet is he on??

    I wonder if the owners of Pcn-Uk have claimed their tax refunds? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/8489727.stm

    I just came on to say that I've been to Gala Bingo this evening, and there was no sign of any notices. But someone has beaten me to it! :)
