Mn redirecting to another web page

Anyone else having problems with MN redirecting?? At first I thought I was clicking ads but having watched what I'm doing very carefully I see it's a glitch. It starts as if it's redirecting to T-mobile but then on to the one shown on the photo. It's only happening on 'chat'.

I'm getting a spam you have won an iPhone 6 then redirected to App Store if I try to use back arrow to go back to thread I was on.
I'm using Safari on an iPhone 6, has happened a few times today, latest was when I clicked on the update to watched threads posted by MNHQ just now

Thanks for flagging - that is annoying, we will look into this

I'm getting redirected to the App Store too - using the mobile site on iphone 6, ios 8.4

It's now happening to me on other sites so may not be a Mumsnet problem, just haven't been on many other sites really today but went googling something now & it's happening on other sites now too. Any other iPhone users check if it's happening elsewhere on the web? I've closed Safari & restarted phone & it's still a problem

Mais, this is exactly what's happened to me. It started on Mumsnet and now seems to have spread to when I go on other sites. Does this mean my iPhone is infected?

I erased all safari data, installed the latest software update, that did nothing. Turning off JavaScript in the advanced settings stopped it happening but I couldn't figure out how to get rid. I've now erased all settings and data on my phone & I've been able to post this reply to you without anything happening so fingers crossed it's worked.

:-( well it worked until I posted then it promptly redirected me again.

Olivia I noticed that the ad at the top of the page only said "Client Side Validation" just before it happened - it's the 2nd time I have seen it

Hi everyone - tech are looking into this at the moment. Thank you for posting.

Don't know if it's helpful but this is the screen it was trying to redirect me too today. I was just scrolling through Active convos at the time. Then it takes me into Sky Bet in the App Store.
