Ip banned for posting a normal comp

MSE Official Note:

If you're finding this is happening to you please try resetting your router. Our techies are working on a fix and we no longer need your IP addresses. One of the in-house Forum Team (Megan, Zorica and I) will post on the thread with any updates.

Thanks!

I have no way of comping as my ip is static, shocked as I'm on no warning and just tried to post the comp I left a message about in chat corner.

MSE Towers have been known to make the odd mistake from time to time.
It's possible that someone from the Forum Team will read this thread, but to cover all the bases, it would probably make sense to send them an email, or PM one of the team.

I suppose it's possible that anti spam measures may have been triggered by something in what you were trying to post as a new thread?

This I presume? http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=68716648&postcount=70

I'll see if I can alert the team, but it is weekend, so pot luck there.

Yes that's it Fermi, thanks, comping via 4g on my ipad is a nightmare, I need to be able to use my laptop on my broadband but can't because of the Ip being banned.
