It’s happening aaaaaaallll the time @BeckyAMumsnet @HebeMumsnet Half the time the ruddy ad doesn’t even load and I’ve just got a blank screen with no way of scrolling past it because it takes up literally the whole screen.

Nocookiesforme · 14/10/2025 10:05

And it's still happening!!!
I'm getting a massive white page with a photo of a builder (?) in the corner, some words and nothing else to identify.
On desktop chrome.
Can't identify and can't get rid until it decides to toddle off!

vodkaredbullgirl · 14/10/2025 09:50

Cleared everything in my phone and it's still happening 😡 😡

MountainBiker · 14/10/2025 09:33

I keep getting this too. A big white screen switching between "scalable" and "execution in action" . Nowhere to clock off it, just have to close the thread

DappledThings · 14/10/2025 09:26

Worse than ever today. Update please.

Lifestooshort71 · 14/10/2025 09:19

And today even worse particularly on THIS THREAD!! I don't want to change browsers for poxy MN (which is how I'm beginning to think of you!!) 🤬🤬🤬

Yep. MN has stopped draining my battery extremely rapidly as well. It’s a complete farce.

Is this on the desktop site too? I wonder if having a mn tab open on my laptop is whats causing it to go berserk!

Whiskeyandkittens · 14/10/2025 00:13

I've also been repeatedly getting the blank screen thing - it always seems to say something about Elizabeth Arden but can't see either the ad or the thread and there's only a few lines of the thread I'm able to scroll at the bottom.

Came here to see if it was just me!

It goes away if I refresh but then I lose my place in the thread and it goes back to the top of the page.

RightOnTheEdge · 14/10/2025 00:10

For the love of God. It honestly gets worse every day.
Just screen fulls of adverts. I'm also getting the white screen that you can get rid of or scroll past, and just full page adverts that take up the whole screen.
It's constant scrolling just to find an actual post!

I can't see 90% of the screen, this is what I get after 10seconds of reading every thread

Hi @BeckyAMumsnet @HebeMumsnet
me too. Single line add takes over the whole screen and I can’t scroll forwards or backwards. Only way out is to press the back button and reload the entire page!! What’s going on?

I'm getting this too @BeckyAMumsnet @HebeMumsnet. Ad was only popping up now and then earlier today, but last hour or so it's happening every page.

Beamur · 13/10/2025 23:27

Making the site unusable tonight!

WalterMittysPuppet · 13/10/2025 23:10

I was finding it frustrating earlier - random scrolling ad suddenly takes up the whole screen, no way to exit and just comes back when you try to re-enter the thread - then I remembered the last time this happened, I just used the Bravo browser for a while. Found it in my apps and I'm using that while the ads are problematic.

zazazaaar · 13/10/2025 23:01

@BeckyAMumsnet @HebeMumsnet its making it impossible to read a thread.

justasking111 · 13/10/2025 22:54

It's gone crazy again 🙈

Happening to me too. Android. Ad taking up most of the screen.

Me too and no amount of scrolling fixes it

Aaah, is the overheating linked to the ads too? I was wondering why my phone screen was boiling hot the other day... Hmm

Thanks everyone for reporting this and for sending across all the info. We think we’ve identified the culprit and have flagged it with our ad partner, who are treating it as a priority. We're hoping it won’t take too long to get sorted.

We really appreciate your patience as we know how irritating this is and we’re very sorry for the hassle.

Kpo58 · 13/10/2025 16:11

I keep getting the same issue of the advent being too large for the screen.

Luluissleeping · 13/10/2025 15:58

I get an Evri one. No cross. Keeps repeating
