This one. It's on the mobile site and impossible to close. Please zap it and kill it with fire, as it's stalking me around the site.

Still constantly getting it here too. Now wouldn't use giffgaff if they were the last mobile network on earth Grin, so they're advertising has backfired somewhat 😂

I've had the GifGaf one pop up a few times today. Reloading the page seems to get rid of it but it's still a pain in the arse.

I'm on IPhone/Safari

TheHobbitMum · 20/11/2016 16:47

I keep getting them Samsung S6 on Android obviously, please for the love of all things great Make it Stop!

raviolidreaming · 20/11/2016 16:44

Same problem here on old android.

PinkissimoAndPearls · 20/11/2016 16:20

Still there, and I can't use the iPhone app any more as it sucks my battery ridiculously quickly...so no MNing for me at all, I'll have to interact with RL Shock

It's the Giffgaff one for me now. Slightly smaller than the 'graduate career' ad, but still no option to close it.

YoungGirlGrowingOld · 20/11/2016 11:24

Same as mermaid here - mobile app on iPhone. It will not die. Bloody annoying!

GoofyIsACow · 20/11/2016 11:19

Morning, everyone.

Huge apologies, we understand it's beyond frustrating. Tech are working on this, and we will update this thread: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/site_stuff/2783483-Pop-Up once we know more - so please do check this one for updates. Flowers

Me too android phone

Rollerbird · 20/11/2016 09:29

Me too

665TheNeighbourOfTheBeast · 20/11/2016 09:25

Bored now!
The looks like an arse crack part of a sofa (banner ad ) was shit
The wait whilst it loads, even though I don't want to watch it, side animations were dire
The accidentally swipe across it self publicising middle of the thread blue boxes were beyond annoying..
Giant page hiding irremovable ads..last straw..
Firefox, & ad blocker. Bliss....revenue stream decreased by another tiny tiny amount, ? not enough to care about clearly.

Did MN never notice that ad with the cream sofa looks like an arse crack On android?

Cadsuane · 20/11/2016 09:25

Samsung S5 neo with the on board browser. I had the gifgaf one today and a Clarks one yesterday.

StreetFighter · 20/11/2016 08:42

iPhone here too. Incredibly frustrating, makes the site unusable.

LadyPenelopeCantDance · 20/11/2016 08:37

Iphone on mobile site too. Lots of different ones appearing. So annoying!

MermaidofZennor · 20/11/2016 08:23
