## About

UK online marketplace for buying and selling used vehicles at auction, used by dealers and fleet operators across Europe

## Activity summary

Partially blocked in Syria. Community testing in September 2026 found that the public site loads but the sign in host refuses the request with an Access denied page from a security filtering layer. Browsing works, signing in does not.

## Community reports

- 2026-09-01 — Investigated. Community testing confirmed that BCA is partially blocked in Syria. The public site loads, but the authentication host at auth.bca.co.uk refuses the request with a page reading «Error. Access denied.» and «To protect the requested service, this request has been blocked or was unable to complete for other reasons», served by a security filtering layer that returns a request identifier. Browsing the site is therefore possible from Syria but signing in is not.

## Context

These are geo-restrictions the companies applied themselves, not filtering by Syrian ISPs and not a legal requirement. US and EU sanctions on Syria were lifted in 2025. See https://unblocksyria.com/llms.txt for the regulatory summary and https://unblocksyria.com/en/about for citations to the specific orders and regulations.
