woosh blocking gasp.co.nz?

I think that my woosh connection is blocking the gasp (http://www.gasp.co.nz/ , http://www.nzwireless.co.nz/) websites.

Gasp is a wireless broadband competitor.

I can go to those websites on my telecom jestream connection but not via my woosh connection... does anyone else on woosh have the same problem????

I can't access gasp.co.nz or nzwireless.co.nz from my woosh connection as well, but I can on my laptop via dialup(xtra).

:evil:

In reply to my enquiry,

Dear Jason,

I have tested the sites www.nzwireless.co.nz and www.gasp.co.nz. I can reach both of them fine from a normal Woosh account. It is possible that perhaps there was an outage when you sent this email?

Thank you for your enquiry. If you require any clarification of this process or further information, please do not hesitate to get in contact.

And both sites now work.

Think they allow you to get onto these sites now after your complaint? ?Very sly if they did...

ha! now both websites work fine... but there was definitely not an outage when they blocked the websites before because I was using woosh fine for every other website.

this must be just a cover
