As I wrote earlier I managed to get in with my iPad. Just tried to see if I could on my iMac and no good using Opera even after deleting all my browsing history and cookies. Also cannot get in with Safari.

I go straight to the login page, I haven't had any problems with that.

That is exactly where I go to but it is not working for me and now it is giving the same message using Safari. 

Apparently GRO are aware and are trying to sort it  ;D

I can’t see the message on the site which says that GRO are aware of the difficulty. Is it on the main site?

From another post on here
On the login page there is this message:

" A small number of customers are reporting that they are being prevented from accessing this site to place orders and accessing PDF's. We apologise if you are affected and are currently seeking to resolve this issue as soon as possible".
