Boots and its fricking authentication checks

Has anyone managed to fix failing Boots authentication checks? Lots of posts from others with the same issue but it doesn't seem to ever resolve. I even tried click and collect and it still doesn't work! So annoying.

Sorry, can't help except to bump up your thread.

I'm having a different problem - they've blocked my IP at my new address. Laptop has FF and tablet uses opera so it's definitely not a browser problem.

That's annoying. Have you tried to turning your router off for 5 minutes? Unless you have a static ip address at home which is unlikely, this may help.

Seems like I'm the only one on here with the problem. It's like this

Boots web site is shit. The ‘extra security‘ seems pointless and is irritating. I use Boots less and less because other sites sell the stuff I like from Boots these days. It’s a shame, I used to use them all the time.

Mine was annoying at work when I wanted to look at £10 Tuesday offers and it wouldn’t tick the box and move on
