They been down for a couple of days now, does anyone else have the same problem getting to them? Tried phoning them, but could not connect

I get the same error. Cloudflare first verifies me as human and then that error comes up.

VPN on gets the error. Could also be the work internet protocol that's blocking the site
 
This site has been heavily locked down.
It is not accessible at all on NordVPN, I have to disconnect that to get access.
They're using the same shyte that some Yank sites use to keep us out of their business

I have 2 websites (2 static pages each) and the firewall blocks more than 500 IP addresses per week from all over the world (increasing every week from 5 to 10 before AI). It's mostly the usual suspects: India, Asian countries etc.

I have very few visitors and websites with more exposure will have thousands more scanning and penetration attempts.

I'm also planning to block everyone outside SA.
 
They've turned up Cloudflare to full (under attack mode) so its validating every request. Usually this should pass on most browsers but if your IP's reputation is even slightly off it will be blocked.
the 403's are weird though if you failed CF validation you'd get a cloudflare error.
