On an iPad, not using the app. The only way to make them go away is to reload the page. What’s going on?

I've been getting these annoying ads too using Silk browser on my Amazon Fire tablet.

Well you asked for screenshots, here is another one.

I get it on the Ipad too, I try and remember to use DuckDuckGo for MN because of this sort of thing but as I use safari as default I tend to forget, I am generally pretty good at ignoring ads. It’s really annoying.

Thanks, @Thatsanotherfinemess1 - is this still happening?

I had the massive ads all day yesterday (not sure what for, just a black screen as above) and ask the AutoTrader ad which opens regardless of where on the screen you click

Tinyspiny has posted an image - same as I get. That’s all you can see. I think it might be NatWest, from when I rotated my screen in desperation.

Hello and thanks for letting us know. If anyone is able to tell us a bit more about the ads in question, it will help us fix the issue. Screenshots are especially helpful.

Yes, massive ads here again. Surprised anyone wants to buy it with these constant issues tbh.

Yes I always use Duckduckgo for Mumsnet. Mumsnet on the app and on chrome was becoming unusable!
