Ad covering half of page on mobile

This is a tedious new ad-related development. It covers half the page for approx 10 seconds and there’s no way to close it.

Still happening! I was on the Strictly thread, but no idea how to give a URL!

Hi I've just been told it might take until 5.45 to go through, so it should reduce until then....

Please keep me posted!

Just now. As placemats says landing page is Bing. It is making the site unusable!

If anything, it's worse. Every page change, every bit of scrolling...curtains, garden furniture, loo seats....no thank you.

Here. Yes my phone needs recharging 😊

Also I have no interest whatsoever on any of the items that are advertised.

@placemats can you send me the link where you saw it please?
And if you click the ad, can you add the landing page link also?

Really helps!

Click via bing. Can't avoid it.

Hi All,

We have pushed an update that should mean that we see these ads less!

If you see the ad again please can you post the URL you saw the ad, as if the new update doesn't work we need to find location that the ad appeared.

Once again, thanks again for your patience, we hope this will end very soon!

(Please take 10 minutes for the update to complete)

Thanks,
MNHQ

I wondered if this was a new bug feature! I'm still getting the same - mobile site, chrome, android phone.
