I can only access this site using a VPN. When I deactivate VPN, I get "you're connection is not private". Annoying when I need to use Ticketmaster as using VPN for them suspend your account

Have you tried connecting via more than 1 web browser, such as Opera? Are you connecting via mobile and does it have adult content permissions? A VPN connection would potentially circumvent UK adult content restrictions, hence the suggestion

Opera has a built in VPN that you can toggle on and off. (I'm using it now and it works well).

Typically, a VPN will convert your connection to 1 that's based in a different country and thus outside of UK restraints.

Try contacting your internet provider (either your broadband or mobile provider - you don't say how you're connecting) and see if there's an adult content filter on your account. They're easy to remove and normally solve connection issues to Fab.

We can access the site on Wifi but not on mobile network (or the other way round!). We get a connection/security/certificate error.

If you get a connection/security/certificate error accessing the site on 4G/mobile-data but not on WiFi (or, the other way round!) it means your mobile network (or ISP if on wifi) has blocked your device from adult content. Some mobile networks have started to do this to phones that have always been 18+ verified and some seemingly do it randomly. If you contact your mobile network on their helpline or via their website, you will see how to age verify your mobile account. The error you see is your ISP trying to display a message which does not show on a secure/ssl site like Fab. We've created a special page you can view which isn't served over secure/ssl so should be able to see the underlying message, here.

Once you have age verified your phone, your network usually advises turning the phone off then on again. It sometimes takes a few minutes then for the block to be removed.
