Ok getting really cross now. There's a giant pop up ad (world at home) which appears on the mobile site covering the whole bloody page. No amount of reporting it as too big/irrelevant works. It comes up frequently and I can't get rid unless I go back. But it means I can't read a particular page of threads. which ruins my MNing
There may even be a thread on this called pop ups. However the giant ad appeared so I couldn't read it to check Hmm

We are aware and working on it, really sorry

Giff gaff on Samsung, no way to turn it off. Is this not against Ofcom rules and is no one reading this thread and taking action?

Gingernaut · 20/11/2016 14:00

No means of clicking an x in the corner of AdChoices either

Yes, I'm getting them on my phone (iPhone) but not on my iPad. Actually, I use the desktop site on my iPad, so that could be the difference?

Not ideal, but if you flick back to the previous page, then forward again, it seems to disappear.

It's impossible to read threads at the moment, this pop up keeps appearing and disappearing. It's driving me insane

Gifgaf and float - I phone 5 on safari mobile site. Several times this afternoon/evening - if I go back then re open the thread I don't get it the 2nd time it's opened

QuoteMeYouFuckers · 19/11/2016 22:39

Just now on that thread with the golf ball Xmas tree decoration.
I went onto tio to find this thread and it bloody came back. For a second, the address bar where it should say mumsnet.com said giffgaff something or other but it didn't stay that way long enough for me to screenshot it copy it.
