Can't seem to send a PM at all, types in ok, then when press send, I get this, and it might just be us, because we've just this mo received one!

What have we done?!!

Hi KnottyAndPistey - thanks for flagging this. Looks like you're on Safari? And on desktop site?

KnottyAndPistey · 02/11/2015 16:38

Have you got a webcam on me?

Yes and yes, damn, you're GOOD!

we guessed from your screenshot

We've flagged to Tech and they'll take a look at what's going on.

I can't send PMs either, same message as above, also Safari.

OnceAMeerNotAlwaysAMeer · 03/11/2015 20:15

Im having the same problem. Win7, Firefox.

First I could see a white box with no message, it looked like it was bugged. Then a second white box with a message 'prevent this page from creating additional dialogues'. Then a later message saying ´you have to be logged into the main site to send a PM´, despite being logged in enough to see the pms in the first place.

noblegiraffe · 03/11/2015 20:27

Ok, on Win 10 I've just tried IE, Edge and Chrome and none of them are letting me send PMs.

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 04/11/2015 06:28

Same for me on my iPad.

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 04/11/2015 06:29

But it was ok for me last night.

KnottyAndPistey · 04/11/2015 08:09

Just seem to be having the problem with the same person, which is odd

OP posts:
noblegiraffe · 04/11/2015 09:59

Oh, I just tried sending to someone else and it worked but I still can't send to the original person I was trying. Confused

KnottyAndPistey · 04/11/2015 10:19

Giraffe - same, exactly that, bonkers stuff Confused

WhoTheFuckIsSimon · 04/11/2015 10:34

I still can't PM the person I need to PM.

tribpot · 04/11/2015 10:47

This is the Safari logo! Rocket science it is not. Grin

Hi folks,

I've got some questions for you about PMs. Since you have shown an interest, I'd like to get your comments.

Please go to this thread to join in: Do you use private messaging on Mumsnet?

thanks

I will have comments, just need to think first!

noblegiraffe · 04/11/2015 18:05

I still can't send the PM I've been trying to send since yesterday Angry

Interestingly, I tried to report the PM I was replying to to flag the problem with MNHQ, and the button did nothing, so I couldn't.

On a different PM from a different poster, I could reply, and the report button brought up the report screen.

ImperialBlether · 04/11/2015 20:15

Same message here.
