VPN Problems

I installed Bitdefender VPN on my PC and iPhone. I have an account in Ireland that can only be accessed while in Ireland. While touring, I could originally access the site with both my PC and IPhone. All of a sudden I cannot access the site on my phone using a VPN. It recognizes that I am outside Ireland. I can still access the site on my PC using the VPN. Any suggestions??

  • Hello @RAY SINCLAIR and welcome to the Community.

    If the website couldn't be accessed on both devices, I would say that there was a probability that the website has implemented a mechanism to detect a VPN connection, but since you can access it from your PC with the VPN enabled, I assume the problem lies elsewhere. You could try the steps provided in the article below and check if the website can be accessed afterwards:

    Alternatively, in the event the issue persists, you can contact the Support teams for a more in-depth investigation. You can get in touch with the Bitdefender engineers by choosing one of the contact channels listed here:

    Scroll down to state your contact reason, then choose from the available contact channels, chat, phone and email/ticket. Chat would be the fastest way to reach them.

    Make sure to provide them with the following information:

    • The affected account
    • Whether the problem occurs on a specific location or all locations
    • IP of the affected server(s)
    • App version + OS version

    Let us know how it goes.
