I faced the same issue and spent some time trying to work around it.

The behaviour is related to this ngix module many free web hosting providers (InfinityFree in my case) install on their servers. Unfortunately, in my case, there is no way to disable the module on the server.

This StackOverflow thread sheds some light on the behaviour. I tested the suggested solution to set the cookie __test in the requests header and the initial result was encouraging as I managed to execute the check_guid function successfully. However, all the HTTP POST requests (e.g. import_bankaccount) always failed, even including the cookie (probably a different problem), and the GET requests now fail again (cookie not valid anymore?). In conclusion, including the cookie is not resolutive. As I am out of ideas, I will look into other free web hosting options.

I hope this helps.
