Use Pingdom as Uptime tool
I use Pingdom to monitor websites and services,, currently the user agent "Pingdom.combotversion1.4(http://www.pingdom.com)" throws a 403 error.
Is it possible to add this one, for the time being I've copied my own User Agent

Hi Jeroen, most likely you used the xx.hypernode.io url with Pingdom. To prevent search spiders to index duplicate content (on xx.hypernode.io urls) and prevent Google penalties, we block all bots on this vhost. Using another http host header should resolve it.

We use Pingdom as a monitoring tool ourselves. No problems there, otherwise, we'd get alerts all day :)
So I'm not quite sure what is happening. Please contact support.
