Helo there! My ip 200.29.3.122 has been blocked apparently due to a temporary excess in querries. Would you be so gentle to unblock it?!

Best regards

Look, if you want me to help you need to provide full details of your problem.

We run many web sites - which one exactly are you complaining about?

Is it, by any chance, http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/?

Sorry, I have inserted this code on my web: http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search? to perform searches and returns this error: bandwidth limit exceeded. I explain myself now

So what you need to do is to make sure you are complying with the usage policy, which you can find here:

https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/nominatim/

In particular make sure you are providing appropriate referer and/or user-agent information.

Once you have done that anyt block should lift automatically after a few hours.
