Trying to sign into my BAEC account this morning, I get the following response. Anyone seen this before or advice what I should do?

I have had this a couple of times when trying to sign in from my works computer, I normally leave it a while and try again and it works most times. Never reported it and it always starts working again.
Not ideal if you need in a hurry but so far its worked for me.

I remember having the same problem twice. Once, when accessing BA from a hotel lounge computer. Went back to room and picked up laptop, that had been left to charge depleted battery, everything went as smooth as BA.com permits. The other time was at work, fixed other things first, 15 min later able to log in

Looks like some sort of CDN or other similar service designed to prevent DDOS attacks I think.. If you're at home and you don't pay for a static IP, try restarting your router.

If you're in the office or in a hotel etc, it may be a little more difficult I imagine, so try submitting your IP to BrightCloud or try again later.

Yes this has been posted about in the past.

If you use the 'search this forum' function and search for 'brightcloud' you'll see the previous threads on this so have a read of those for the solution but I think a good start would be to clear your cookies and cache

Thanks everyone (and thanks to Haley). Cleared cache and cookies and I'm back in business.
