Black areas on mobile

Anyone else get this? If I'm browsing the site on my phone if I've come back to my browser from using another app the thread will be all fuzzy and have random black blocks all through it before I refresh.

Simple fix but still annoying. :s

Still happening on my Samsung too! Angry ironically this is the only thread it's not happened on yet.

emwithme · 22/10/2018 07:14

Yup, getting this too. Samsung A5, Android, chrome. And not only when the m&s advert is up but that is definitely one of the culprits

SilverHairedCat · 22/10/2018 07:14

It's definitely the M&S advert. I chanced it an tapped on the black screen at the top and it took me to their website. There's no way to block it either, as it doesn't offer you the X that most advert do, it just locks up your screen!

TallulahBetty · 22/10/2018 07:09

Happening on every single thread this morning Angry

RoseReally · 22/10/2018 07:08

I'm having this too, really annoying. Would make sense if it was the m&s advert as have been looking on the website the last couple of days sonpf course will follow me round the internet!

Her0utdoors · 22/10/2018 07:07

Still ongoing on my Sony phone.

SilverHairedCat · 22/10/2018 07:05

It's even happening on the Active Threads page now!

The site is unusable.

Galvantula · 22/10/2018 06:48

Just got it again this morning... It's not just the m&s ads. :(

Im not using mumsnet either until its fixed

blackheartsgirl · 21/10/2018 23:24

Im still having this problem..on every single thread and its getting worse, thread unreadable now.

Samsung A5.

SleepingInYourFlowerbed · 21/10/2018 21:58

I've had enough. I'm not using Mumsnet until it's fixed now.

FormerlyFrikadela01 · 21/10/2018 21:51

Is it always the same advert? I never notice until it's all black but a second ago it happened and the ad before it happened was for collectif though it may have changed.

ginnybag · 21/10/2018 21:47

No ive got it too, Samsung A3 on chrome. Its driving me potty and making me avoid the site.

WarlocksAreLocks · 21/10/2018 21:39

Not even a long thread, a new one with only the OP. Samsung, chrome. Getting unusable now tbh

This has been going on for weeks with the m&s advert though. Was so relieved when the ad went away a week or so back but it has come back on the top of practically every thread so there is no respite from it atm.

DaanSaaf · 21/10/2018 21:14

Same here, long threads are completely unreadable. It's very very annoying.

SilverHairedCat · 21/10/2018 21:03

To be fair at the time on a Sunday I think it's just the Nightwatch, rather than @MNHQ

AnxiousEffie · 21/10/2018 20:39

Perhaps if we all repeatedly 'report' posts on this thread it will get their attention.

DappledThings · 21/10/2018 20:36

So fecking annoying. Have to refresh every single page to avoid this black box overlapping posts shite

MistressDeeCee · 21/10/2018 20:30

I noticed it's the M&S advert causing it on my phone.

Annoying.

booksandwool · 21/10/2018 20:23

Yes, pretty unreadable for me too.
