Thoughtless awful UK extension e-mail error

This appeared upon me entering my rolled.at e-mail address in on a site, despite me also entering my UK address and UK post code, and UK phone numbers.

Darn that Austrian domain name for uncovering my true foreign identity.

Another classic is when you get declined access to, say, a banking site because your IP’s geo information for some reason doesn’t flag it as a UK address, despite you in fact being connected in the UK.

Better or worse than the days of declining users based on their browser, resolution, or scripting preferences?
