Why is MN so slow?

531 replies

I'm not moaning - honest!

But Mumsnet s very slow - all the time. There's definitely nothing wrong with my internet, I have 200MB download and all other sites are fine.

I just wonder why this is? Are you throttled?

Hi there NameChangeNoreen

Really sorry about this!

If this is still happening, would you mind sending us an email at [email protected] with a screenshot?

We'll look into this!

Thanks for the updates everyone, we are passing onto Tech again.

PyongyangKipperbang · 07/02/2017 14:42

Me three with the blank screen, and always a delay before I can type in the message box.

Rowgtfc72 · 07/02/2017 12:56

Blank white screen here too.

AliceInUnderpants · 07/02/2017 12:32

Issues this morning with blank white screen.

Perfectlypurple · 07/02/2017 11:37

Just had the blank white screen problem again. Every other website I go on is fine.

Morning all - the apps should be good to go now, is anyone still having issues?

TrippyMcTrapFace · 06/02/2017 22:55

Still as bad as ever.
I have no problem with any other sites loading. Superfast broadband and yet it takes between 20-30 seconds for a page to load on this site.

Windows 10, laptop usually Firefox sometimes Chrome. Less often, iPad, ios, Safari.

What hobnobs said upthread. I'd been away from the site again due to this slow loading issue, came back a few days ago and it's just as awful as ever. Please sort it.

MargoChanning · 06/02/2017 19:42

App is working fine for me now. Phew!

ExplodingCarrots · 06/02/2017 17:24

I'm also getting the same on the app. I'm on mobile site now.

Tequilamockinbird · 06/02/2017 17:18

I too am getting that message on app and so having to use website on safari. Please fix it Tech!

MargoChanning · 06/02/2017 16:31

I'm also getting that message on my app (so now posting via website).

LIZS · 06/02/2017 16:23

Am increasingly having problems opening threads on the app. Have tried rebooting the router and closing other apps but still getting the "trouble connecting you, try refreshing the page" message.

LIZS · 06/02/2017 13:57

Just happened again , thread in Chat . Dd got U in mocks ... also getting internet connection errors but other apps are ok.

TimMumsnet · 06/02/2017 10:30

Hi @LIZS - just posting using the app now, and so far no issues. We'll keep an eye on the problem, and fix any bugs that we find, let us know if the problem persists.

LIZS · 04/02/2017 17:05

Like this , but you can see above it did post

Why is MN so slow?
hobnobsaremyfavourite · 04/02/2017 17:02

Ridiculously slow again
Barely been in recently and reminded again today why that is

LIZS · 04/02/2017 17:01

Hello!

Thanks for keeping us updated.

We appreciate that this is really frustrating.

Just to let you know, tech is aware and looking into fixing these issues, especially the annoying 'jump' that is making threads hard to read.

Sorry again for the inconvenience, we will keep you posted.

PrancerForHoney · 31/01/2017 06:41

Almost 4 minutes to post a photo. I actually left it and made a cup of tea and it was still loading.
No problems with anything else on the Internet.

VoodooPeople · 31/01/2017 00:18

Started posting again in the last couple of days and often can't even access the site, it just times out. Absolutely NO problems with any other website, only MN.

Laptop - Chrome and/or Edge

rumblingDMexploitingbstds · 29/01/2017 12:24

Ok I give up. The jump this morning is so big that I've started to read something, then it jumps hugely and what I was looking at is no longer even on the screen.

This is unusable now.
