Re: Won’t let my purchase on the website…
Hi @jules+x
This is usually something to do with where Skystore thinks your IP address is located
If you have the option to come off wifi and go on to mobile data (just for the purchase) then go back on to wifi for a download
So certainly temporarily turn off a VPN if you use one
Check your region setting in your iPad general settings section
There is something in privacy / location services where you need to allow safari websites to share your location. Honestly not sure if this impacts on Skystore with worth looking at and trying Chrome as a alternative
Worth rebooting your ipad in case it's confused

If your iPad is connected to your home wifi then it is also worth rebooting your broadband router, leave it off for 5 minutes before powering it backup and at the same time reboot your iPad.

Re: Won’t let my purchase on the website…
and @david+john - if it's a buy and keep, what happens if you try to buy it on a mobile device using 4G / 5G ?
