New level of insult
AF are clearly looking for new degrees of "fragilisation" of Club 2000 customers, and in this they have been very successfully.
On checking a booking on www.airfrance.nl just now, and logged in as C2000, doing what I have done frequently for 10+ years, I was brazenly told this, on an error screen:
"You can no longer access this service from this computer.
If you wish to renew access rights, please send an e-mail to the following address [email protected], quoting reference IP10.162.253.52
Your access will be reactivated within 48 hours. "
I always thought Parisian waiters were the rudest people in the world, until I realised that they have been replaced, so it seems, by AF staff.
Bien fragilise,
Paul

My access to AF site went also down, even before I loaded my ID.

I'd say it looks more like a computer failure than a FFP failure...

Computers
It seems to depend on computers :
Today at my company I connected without any problem. I then tried with the laptop and the vodafone card, and it jammed with the above mentionned message.
Maybe something wrong with the navigator (laptop uses explorer, desk one mozilla).

Hi,
It could actually be related to network address translation. The IP reference given (if this is an IP address reference) is a "private" address. Thus AF's computers cannot resolve it to an owner should they ever need to investigate illegal behavior. It could be that your mobile card doesn't provide a public address.

Why does what looks like a very common internet or website bug, gives an excuse to anyone to lash out his antifrench or anti parisian feelings?
I find this very offensive.

It looks as if this thread has run its course.
