Temporarily blacklisted IP Address - try again later

Woke up to this issue with all of my comcast accounts.  Previous closed question never had an answer, even though the issue has happened years ago.  My quick fix to go through my VPN.

Yes. Mine working too. Likely a xfinity issue.  It has to be. Too bad they can't let customers know or at least their support team so I didn't waste 2 hrs of my life getting no where with customer service.  Transferred once to a sales person by accident trying to sell me cell phone service.  Like I want any more service from them when I can't ever get help

Yep. I contacted them as well. which is almost impossible to do. He had me delete mail from my phone and said he would call me back. NEVER DID.  This is why I finally got rid of comcast.

I knew it was too good to be true... Issue started up again this morning.  Similar to yesterday, DetectorDown is showing problems on the rise. https://downdetector.com/status/xfinity/

It's gotten much worse starting earlier today. For a few days using a VPN did the trick, but now, no matter what my ip address is I get that message. On my desktop, cell phone (both using a router and my data), it doesn't even matter what my ip is now. This is crazy.

How does one tell if their IP has been blacklisted?

You get an alert from your e-mail client software that says your ip address has been temporarily blacklisted. You're unable to log into your account at that point to download your mail.
