Then it has to be a problem with the iPhone WhatsApp application, perhaps its trying to access another web address which is still blocked? iPhone security is known to be very tight.

As its only a BT Broadband connection issue, then it has to be either BT Web Protect, or Parental controls that are blocking a link within WhatsApp.

If it was a major problem with iPhones, others would be reporting it.
