Kitchen Garden Forum

Recently I reactivated my KG subscription online after it expired. Yesterday I received an unexpected hose pipe spray from Mortons and used the website "Contact Us" form to enquire whether this was a Free Gift or it had been sent in error. The next thing I know, a big sign flashes up on the computer saying "ACCESS DENIED. You are banned from this site for Abuse" Thereafter, I couldn't access the Forum, or even the website, getting a message that I was denied permission.
I was pretty upset and thought I must have been banned for talking about "sh*te" and swallows on one of the threads.
I have subsequently contacted the Website Administrator who explained that because of major abuse by spammers, the IT Department had set up a blocking mechanism which had inadvertedly affected me. He has now kindly "unblacked" me, so I'm back again. I must confess, it felt pretty horrible being a social pariah and wondering what I'd done that was bad enough to get me an ASBO.

Glad to see you're back successfully. I can confirm that we did get your message about your subscription and are looking into it. You should send a PM to KGadmin if you have any further problems!

Dear Primrose, you would be the last person to get banned from the forum, as you're far to nice.

As for me now, thats an entirely different matter.

Ahh welcome Primrose

It was a pleasure talking to you.

Just to confirm the hose & spray nozzle you got when you renewed is a free gift - and part of the current offer open to ALL UK readers who subscribe / renew right now.

Any more problems do drop me a PM

KGAdmin

But if you're banned, you can't send a PM, can you?

Thanks again. It was so nice to phone somebody and get a REAL voice - and a helpful one too. All I seem to get when I ring somebody with a query these days is a recorded announcement or a call centre in India with somebody who doesn't know the answer to my problem.

Welcome back Primrose.
