Internet or router wrong geo location

[SAR32]

Noticed twitter and some websites display India tranding and currency as default in indian ruppes. checked few devices and once connected to wifi they all show same issue, reason why I belive its router fault. Tried reseting router it but it didnt help. GEO IP TOOL shows my location in Mumbi, India. Windows and devices locations are set currectly.

I've got the exact same problem. I think Vodafone UK have introduced a new IP address range which is being identified as in India.  It is causing a real problem. 

Especially for Geo-restricted services - https://forum.vodafone.co.uk/t5/Other-broadband-queries/Now-TV-EU-roaming-problem/td-p/2631658

Another issue with Vodafone Broadband.

@SAR32 Sorry you're having issues with your location, I appreciate how frustrating this must be. Are you currently running a VPN? 

[SAR32]

Hi, I did If OPERA browser VPN counts. Surprised every device at home in effected. Anyway to reset it? Annoying to see India trending news everyday. Thank you.

I am having the same issue- my IP address appears to be in Mumbai ? 

I first noticed it after getting a notification from Apple saying I had logged on a device in Mumbai .

Then all my Twitter notifications were Indian themed - not a real issue as I can just use a VPN to appear to be in the UK however when I tried to purchase a hotel room after buying air tickets , my card was refused -

(I suspect as  they thought it was being used in India !).

Maybe that's why my speed is a pilfly 8.8mb or less if it's being rerouted via Mumbai???

( Do I just need to put up with that ? )

I'm also having this problem, unable to use some geo restricted services. I've tried using microsoft's project xCloud which says unavailable in my location, and I've noiced for some time that my twitter adverts are predominantly Indian

Same here. I've been seeing Indian Twitter trends for a while...I can live with that...but now online shops (e.g. Next.co.uk, this morning) are asking me if I want to stay on their UK site or shop via their Indian website. 

Very frustrating.

Has anyone got a solution? Thanks.
