    You should enable 2 step verification if you’re not already using it. You’ll be notified if a new device tries to log on to your account.

    Sorry, the term is dynamic IP. You get a different IP whenever you connect. The IP could be located at some distance from you. You may spot a repeated pattern of distant locations depending on your use/times etc.

    If you’re accessing via a mobile phone, you can get false locations.

    Also, BT are sharing IP V4 addresses, or something like that, leading to location issues.

    And, yes, turn on two step verification.
