Is it just me? I’m getting a huge amount of annoying pop ups whilst using mn the last couple of days.
I can’t get back to where I was reading or posting when one of these happens and it’s hugely annoying!

It is immensely annoying.

This is what they look like for me - looks properly dodgey and like MN been hacked. You can see the link address in this (no way I’m clocking on it tho)

This was a massive problem a few months ago OP and it made mumsnet virtually unusable for me. Hope they get it sorted out before it becomes a real issue again.

Literally got another one while trying to respond to this thread. Same as those screen shots above about winning a special reward.
I’m in Bucks and using an iPhone.

iPhone XS, Surrey, just as others reported, started yesterday for me both on IPhone and IPad.
Updated their software to no avail, downloaded Adguard app free from the App Store and so far it has finally stopped, thank goodness as I don’t like the Mumsnet app at all.

Take a look in the threads on site stuff, there are plenty of links and screenshots posters have given on there. But it’s useful to know that Mumsnet Towers only really engage when problems are raised on the more public facing AIBU pages.

dragonflyflew · 11/08/2019 10:20

@jammiecodger I reported this post which is why I think they’ve responded here
