I get 403 Forbidden error during HTTP Geocoding.

Response: '403: Forbidden' for url: 'http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?
q=<address>&output=csv&key=<KEY>&sensor=false&oe=utf8&g1=UK'

>From a search at the group's previous posts, I realize that this error
is given when the IP making Geocoding requests is 'blacklisted' by
Google service since the requests are going too fast.  There has to be
a delay of 1.725s between every two requests.

Now, my questions are as follows:
1) If the API gives 403 error for this, then what is error code 620
for?
2) My code puts a delay of 100ms every time it encounters a 620
error.  But apparently, I never receive a 620 error and so there is no
delay introduced.  Is there some 'default' delay to be applied?  I had
read in a post that the delay between every request was removed.  The
only limitation now is 15000 per day.  Is my understanding wrong?  If
not, then why am I getting 403 error?  I get this error after about
just 15-20 requests.

Can anyone can shed some light on this problem?

Thanks in advance.
