Hyperoptic CGNAT - cannot connect to certain websites

Is anyone having any difficulty connecting to the British Airways website today through 88.98.204.103? I have no problems when I connect through my phone (4G) or my Sky ADSL connection which I haven't yet cancelled.

I called up Hyperoptic and they told me this is a common problem and that the public IP address may have been blocked and I have to call up British Airways to request that they allow a connection from it. I think it is ridiculous that it is the customer's responsibility to contact a website provider to allow a connection through when it the service provider's responsibility to provide the internet connection!

The only other solution I was provided was to pay £5 a month for a static IP. It seems completely unreasonable that I have to pay extra in order to get what should ordinarily be provided as part of the service. Even Sky provided better customer service than this! I am seriously considering going back to my Sky Pro ADSL connection because even though it's slower, at least it works.
