## About

UK-based web hosting provider offering shared hosting, cPanel reseller plans, and managed WordPress hosting.

## Activity summary

Blocked in Syria. In May 2026 a community volunteer opened a support ticket after clients reported that visitors from Syria could not reach hosted sites, and the company confirmed a network-level block covering Syria and other sanctioned countries that cannot be lifted for individual accounts. A follow-up citing the eased UK and international sanctions framework drew only a request for technical diagnostics, and the ticket was closed without any legal or compliance engagement.

## Community reports

- 2026-05-13 — Company Responded. Brixly's technical support replied requesting technical details from the affected network — exact error messages or screenshots, ping test results to the server or domain, traceroute output, and the public IP address of the affected network — rather than engaging on the regulatory pushback. The ticket was subsequently marked as resolved on May 20, 2026 without further substantive response from Brixly's legal or compliance team.
- 2026-05-13 — Follow-up Sent. The community volunteer replied with a detailed legal pushback citing recent UK and international regulatory changes. The follow-up referenced the Syria (Sanctions) (EU Exit) (Amendment) Regulations 2025 (UK statutory instrument 2025/507), the UK Government's official guidance for businesses and aid organisations regarding Syria, U.S. Treasury OFAC updates, and the OFAC sanctions programs overview page. The volunteer asked that the message be forwarded to Brixly's legal and compliance department for review of whether onboarding and service access for Syrian users can now be supported.
- 2026-05-13 — Company Responded. Brixly's technical support team responded via support@brixly.uk confirming that access from Syria is currently restricted across their entire network. The reply stated that as a UK-based hosting provider Brixly is required to comply with international trade sanctions, and that access to their infrastructure is restricted from Syria, Iran, North Korea, Crimea, and Cuba. The response stated that these blocks cannot be removed or relaxed for individual accounts or websites, and that visitors from these locations would be unable to establish a connection to Brixly's servers. This is a human response confirming a network-level block rather than an account-level restriction.
- 2026-05-13 — Contacted Company. A community volunteer opened a support ticket with Brixly at support@brixly.uk inquiring whether access from Syria is currently restricted, after multiple clients reported that visitors from Syria could not reach websites hosted on Brixly. The volunteer asked whether Syria is currently blocked and whether the restriction could be removed or relaxed.

## 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.
