I'm getting it too Chicken...I usually have it as a saved tab on my Safari browser in the UK, it's okay if I open a new tab/window, but if I try to refresh an already existing tab it happens.

Safari (on MacBook and iPhone) and no clue on the gibberish…happy to set up a teams call or some such and show you what’s happening.

The host company made a slight adjustment to the settings… It might take some time to become active… Let me know if anything changes for the better… Thanks for your help
