Hi Mark,


We had an issue similar to this a few years ago when we put some new public 
space live.



From memory I think Google had their own geo-IP database and after raising the 
issue via this 
URL<https://support.google.com/websearch/contact/ip?vid=0-150711665072-1550668716845>
 updates were eventually made.



Regards,

Matt

Morning



Having checked they are using googles DNS as a forwarder off a local windows 
server.  Pushing a test workstation over on to cloud flares 1.1.1.1 doesn’t 
seem to have made a difference and unfortunately seems to still be taking them 
to the Spanish version of Sky, Amazon thinks we are in Wales. (The Wales I 
think is coming from one of the geo-ip providers as I’m seen this on checks.)



Thanks

Mark
