I'm having problems with http://www.betfred.com Is anybody else seeing an issue?
Lots of the images aren't loading and the site just generally isn't functioning properly. It's fine if I go via a non-Plusnet connection.
Seems to have started in the last couple of days.

Take out the trailing . in the link and it works.

Oops - I can't modify the original post to remove the trailing . If you can edit it Strat, could you do so please?
I'm still getting the issue on the site where a load of the images don't load and navigation is broken, across multiple browsers and PCs, all behind my plusnet connection. Fine if I connect via a different ISP.

BUT it does work in TOR Browser
That is usually an indication that the ISP is blocking it. (Maybe your firewall, maybe they use bad packets?)

It's working for me fine via Firefox, it could be a DNS issue have you tried different ones, I use OpenDNS

Ah, yes, almost certainly. Especially given that when trying to access the mobile betfred.com returns "There may be a problem with your connection".
Ah well, could you add betfred.com to the list of sites to try to negotiate with please!

Not that I blame them, I despise online gambling (well, it;s not really gambling, it's scratch cards but played online, not like a REAL Blackjack table or roulette wheel)
At any rate, if idiots want to do it then it;s not PNet's place to play nanny and stop them.

@Casey: I use Google's DNS, not Plusnet. I'm sure it's this geolocation issue, especially given that the mobile site point blanc refuses to load on the Plusnet connection. Same with William Hill.

GFeoLoc says I'm in London. If i try that sire with the browsers direct it's a no-go.. use TOR broswer and it's fine (which implies it's not a GeoLoc issue as TOR says I'm in Germany... or Switzerland.. or...) Where does Google DNS say you are? It IS possible - if G Dns says you;re in America then BF might be blocked there (America is NOT "the land of the free"!!).
But that doesn't explain why my London GeoLoc is blocked and the TOR browser isn't...
Maybe there are two issues - the geolocation AND a block?

Open DNS supports my theory - the PNet DNS are set to block BetFred.
Eh?
The only time you'll see gambling sites blocked is if you have Safeguard switched on and configured to block them. You'd also need to be using the 213.120.234.42 and 213.120.234.38 resolvers.
If you're using the traditional Plusnet DNS addresses - 212.159.6.9, 212.159.6.10, 212.159.13.49 and 212.159.13.50 - then nothing is blocked.

I'm not convinced your problem is the same one being reported by @carvell. For a start, you're not assigned a 209.93 IP, instead your IP is from a range that's been in operation for years.
Even if our content filter was blocking access, it wouldn't return a 404 error.
Are you able to trace to the website? This is what I get and I can access the site:
