Snap. On mobile site/iPhone. I hadn't had any problem ads before this weekend but now there always seems to be a huge one getting in the way and the site is almost unusable.

Use the Ad Blocker add-on, it's brilliant.

I can't have any more apps on my phone, I only have a few and I'm nearly out of space and I don't want to delete Period Tracker or BBC Weather

Same for me, I'm using an iPhone 6S and I've not had any problems until this weekend when I am not getting massive giffgaff adverts popping up. It takes up around a third of the screen and it's reaaallly annoying. It makes the site unusable.

Yes! That damn giff gaff one which you can't get rid of. Massively annoying.

I agree. Piss off with the huge drop down adds that cover the page. In the history of advertising I can't believe that an intrusive drop down add stopping you from reading has ever persuaded anyone to buy that product.

Oh yes.

FFS! Sort it out.

I've had this the past two days with half the scree taken up. Even when I've filled in the survey to tell them to guck off that I'm not interested, they're still there.

Same here!

This needs fixing; what if a giant ad is blocking some of my fabulous advice or ponderings?

I had one earlier, when I tried to shut it it demanded to know why I didn't want to see it. When I told it, it kindly said it wouldn't show it to me again. Didn't flippin well remove it though Angry
