Can't access Currys website

Anyone else blocked from visiting the Currys website via SMARTY? Lots of websites/web services also seem to put my location in Birmingham despite being located near London. Odd.

    AndrewW  I have just checked and there was no problem at all in visiting Curry's website here. It also got my location correct.

    Are you by any chance using a VPN that puts you somewhere else in the UK? - my  freebie version does that if I turn it on.

    Hi AndrewW

    Have you checked at the very bottom of the search page for the location (this is with Goggle Chrome)?
    It auto selects your location via your IP address and you can update it to the correct one by selecting 'Update Location' (allows Google to know your location details).
    If you don't use Google, do an internet search on 'how to change location details when using .......'
    Good luck x
