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

Thought it was just me when I opened the thread about choosing dh above a friend. There was a ginormous advert covering the whole page, I touched the cross in the corner, reported it as irrelevant but the giant ad was still there. I had to go back and try again before being able to read it. I'm on mobile site using an Android phone.

It only seems to happen to me when I'm on 'Threads I'm On' (again, iPhone/safari/mobile). It's fine on 'active' and in individual threads.

Got a giant New Look advert here. On kindle fire, silk browser.

Hi everyone
Just to let you know we are looking into this.
Thanks

PickAChew · 19/11/2016 16:37

I got the gift gaff one. It appeared to scroll with the page, too.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 19/11/2016 16:34

Oh the irony, again...

And again. Use the cross in the top corner to report that ad was covering content and came up with a bar saying ad closed by Google, but it wouldn't close.

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 19/11/2016 16:27

And again. Same debut one

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 19/11/2016 16:25

Another one this one was too big to get at the corner.

Should have said earlier, mobile site/android
