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

Yes, it's the bloody M&S footwear advert from what I can see - at least, that's what's on the top band advert at the time this happens.

HyggeHeart · 21/10/2018 09:38

Me too 😬!

PainSnail · 21/10/2018 09:36

Awful for me too. Its on almost every post. Why hasn't this been fixed already? It's been going on for ages

DappledThings · 21/10/2018 09:20

Been happening for me for ages too and also noticed today it seems to be M&S.

Black boxes on screen and posts start repeating down page. Each page is fine after refreshing.

Happening again.

Was also when M&S banner was at tip as a PP suggested.

DrinkReprehensibly · 21/10/2018 08:52

Was coming on to post about how it had been okay for a couple of days but was now happening again this morning but couldn't post on this actual thread because of it!

I clicked the black advert and it took me to the M&S website so I agree with PP that M&S are behind this.

Mumsnet won't load on my Samsung A3 through chrome at all since the appearance of Chrome changed the other week (some sort of update?) so I've been blaming that.

I had to download another browser (Puffin) and it works fine through that.

Do you think the Black Screen of Death has engulfed MN head quarters which is why there isn't an update...

It is the m&s advert - happens every time the a m&s ad appears on the site.

You can temporarily reset by refreshing the page but it comes back. Is getting a tad annoying Mn - this has been happening with these ads for weeks.

Happening to me too, it's awful, on a new Huawei psmart with latest Android. worse on new phone than old Huawei p9 with older android system.

Allthepinkunicorns · 21/10/2018 07:49

Yup it's so annoying, black screen and all the posts are jumbled up. Please sort it out mumsnet it's been happening for a week or so for me.

NewtScamandersNaughtyNiffler · 21/10/2018 07:48

Happening here too. Using chrome on a Samsung Galaxy s9

tribpot · 21/10/2018 07:31

Dreadful again today, site unusable from mobile. Sort your tech out, MN. (And I mean both tech and Tech).

PandoNoPants · 21/10/2018 07:25

Huawei p10 Pro, Android, Chrome. Thought I was going mad! Can't really read threads at all.

Hangingtrousers · 21/10/2018 07:21

I have a Huawei.

Hangingtrousers · 21/10/2018 07:20

Thought this was just me as I have a new phone! I get this too. It's annoying!

Happygummibear · 21/10/2018 07:15

After the re direction issue and now this I am getting truly fed up. Even had to refresh to make this post and again as it happened midway through my post!

I also have the m &s ad....
