It appears that Vodafone has mistakenly applied an age restriction to NFED and other sites, categorising them as containing adult content. I have already contacted Vodafone and hope to resolve this issue promptly.

If you're experiencing difficulties accessing NFED, you can add it to your list of safe sites or access it via WiFi. While disabling the age restriction will allow the site to load normally, this option is not recommended for users under 18, as it may expose them to genuine adult content.

NFED does not contain adult content. We strive to maintain a safe environment for users of all ages and fully support the work of the Child Exploitation & Online Protection Centre (CEOP). Additionally, we adhere to the Good Practice Guidance for the Moderation of Interactive Services for Children.

Any updates will be posted below..

"I've been running a website since 1999 http://nfed.co.uk but have noticed it is blocked by Vodafone due to adult content? It is a local equestrian website, no adult content & many junior users, but the only way they can see it is by turning off the adult filter. How do I get this issue resolved?
The site is safe for all ages & fully endorses the work of the Child Exploitation & Online Protection Centre http://ceop.gov.uk. We abide to the Good Practice Guidance for the Moderation of Interactive Services for Children, I don't want to suggest turning of safety filters."

Hello there, thanks for reaching out to us. We understand that you're looking to re-classify your website as it is being blocked. We can certainly help you with. May I know how would you like the website to be re-classified as?

Hi. It is an equestrian information resource for all ages. Contains classified advertising, local events & business advertising. So however that fits in with your categories. Thank you.

Thank you. Can you help me with the screenshot of the page where it says site is blocked, so that I can share this with our team.

I've turn off the adult content filter on both mine & wife's phone so can no longer see this!
The url is http://nfed.co.uk as far as I know this is a recent issue?

If this is really needed, please get back to & I'll turn the filter back on. Steve

To save time I've turned it off again :-)

Can you please try to access the URL: http://nfed.co.uk  and let me know if it is working or not?

I will have to turn the age restriction back on again, it is working with it off.

No, it is only working with age restriction disabled.

I understand that you want Vodafone to make it accessible to all website users without any age restrictions. Is that correct?

Yes please

Ongoing Issue with Adult Content Filter Blocking Website Access
Hi, I was hoping this issue would have been resolved by now, but I’m still unable to log into my own website using a mobile device unless the adult content filter is turned off. As I’ve previously mentioned, my website contains no adult content, and I cannot expect younger users to disable the filter just to access it, as this would expose them to risks on other sites.
This restriction is impacting my customer base and needs to be addressed.
If you’re unable to assist, could you please advise on the steps I should take to resolve this issue?
