It's really intrusive

Totally agree. It's given me the rage and has made me even less likely to open MN

ChilliMum · 18/03/2020 23:39

Wow, hugely inappropriate mumsnet.

I have just seen a post by someone extremely worried they are displaying symptoms of covid-19.

Second post - yep - here is a deal you might find useful. Honestly, no, not really that helpful at all, not appropriate and not at all in the ethos of the site.

Such a sad decline of what was a really good site.

Intrusive, wanky and surely counterproductive.
I dunno if it is different for different people but my version of the chuffing pile shit is offering a vast 5% off Hoseasons self catering holiday. Surely no-one is going to be booking a holiday they probably won't be able to go on with an outfit that might not even exist soon are they? Not even for a stunning whole 5% off?

LittleYorkshireLass · 18/03/2020 23:40

I'm not getting it. But yeah I agree, it's out of order.

Suze1621 · 18/03/2020 23:41

Hate it too

Whatsnewpussyhat · 18/03/2020 23:41

Here's my feedback @MNHQ
Advertising self catering holidays in the current climate is ridiculously insensitive as well as being intrusive and bloody annoying!

poshredrose · 18/03/2020 23:42

We're all seeing the same one I think. I really don't like it. Annoying, repetitive and insensitive at the moment.

chomalungma · 18/03/2020 23:43

It is fucking stupid.
What idiot thought of doing that at this moment.

BitchHazel · 18/03/2020 23:43

Intrusive, annoying and fucking insensitive to be advertising holidays given the current situation.

Ffs.

BigChocFrenzy · 18/03/2020 23:44

YANBU

Fuck off, ShopBot !

armwrestler · 18/03/2020 23:44

totally agree, it's completely inappropriate and jarring. Who the hell is going to book a holiday at the moment? It just rubs it in that we've lost one! Bit it!

armwrestler · 18/03/2020 23:45

*bin

Donkeytail · 18/03/2020 23:53

Apart from the stupid timing it is just annoying. I saw it on the first thread I looked at and no I didn't find it useful, you don't need to shove it in my face on every single thread.

CrystalDeCanter · 18/03/2020 23:56

Really bad decision mumsnet.

FUCK OFF SHOP BOT

The last thing we want at any time is fucking stupid advertising, and for you to start now makes me wonder about your marketing team. FFS drop it - stop being greedy.
