Hi Savagebeauty

Thanks for letting us know, and so sorry you're having trouble with the mobile site.

Can we just ask if you're noticing any particular adverts just before the site freezes? We're thinking that could be the problem.

Is anyone else having this trouble on mobile/Android?

sunshinesue · 25/03/2016 17:43

I am having the same problem. Not noticed it being caused by any ad in particular

MrsHathaway · 25/03/2016 18:16

Yes, I am.

Happens on TIO all the time. I haven't spotted a particular advert but will look next time.

I'm also getting a problem with only half a page loading, and the other half just plain white to scroll through.

Savagebeauty · 25/03/2016 18:54

Glad it's not just me.
Haven't noticed any particular ad activity

I have a frozen tab open with the Disney advert on it.

Savagebeauty · 26/03/2016 12:04

Still not working. The only as I constantly see is the Workfest one

Oh thank goodness, I thought it was just me! I've not noticed any particular adverts at the time, but I'll keep an eye out.

Chrome on Nexus 7 tablet, all up to date.

shadowfax07 · 26/03/2016 15:08

It's just happened again on this page! GoCompare ad at top, NHS one at the bottom.

DawnMumsnet · 26/03/2016 15:30

Thanks for letting us know, and so sorry you're all having problems with the mobile site.

We've let both our Tech and our Ads team know that there seems to be a problem here, and will get back to you with any news.

In the meantime, if you could post any details about which mobiles you're using, that'd be a big help.

bananapeanut · 26/03/2016 15:34

I have a problem where the site crashes every time I try to use it on my iPad. I now just don't bother going on the site unless I'm on the mobile app on my phone

bruffin · 26/03/2016 15:42

Same here, lots of freezing, but havent noticed any particlar ads

Savagebeauty · 26/03/2016 16:38

I'm on Motorola

Disney again twice.

Samsung Galaxy S4 apparently. Chrome.

shadowfax07 · 26/03/2016 20:54

For me it's definitely the NHS Start 4 Life ad at the bottom.

DawnMumsnet · 27/03/2016 08:42

Thanks, everyone. We'll flag all these adverts to our Ads team to see if any of them are the cause of the problem here.

bruffin · 27/03/2016 11:45

Nice n easy

ShowOfHands · 27/03/2016 18:04

Happening to me all the time. Been doing it for days. Just freezes and I have to go out and in again.

Samsung something or other and Chrome.

ShowOfHands · 28/03/2016 20:05

It's doing it lots this evening.

MrsHathaway · 28/03/2016 20:21

Yes, awful tonight. Any and all ads.

That said, I normally get static ads and they all seem to be moving today.

whatsonyourplate · 01/04/2016 14:21

It's been doing it for a while for me, but loads this afternoon. Chrome on android. No particular ad I've noticed.

whatsonyourplate · 02/04/2016 09:22

It's doing it all the time now - VERY annoying!

ouryve · 03/04/2016 17:19

It's been annoying me all week, too. Chrome, Android, Motorola. Thought it was happening mostly when my signal dropped out, but it's doing the same at home, on WiFi, too.

CurbsideProphet · 03/04/2016 17:21

Same here! Android, using wifi and 4g. Thought it was just me!

Cocoabutton · 03/04/2016 17:31

Chrome on Andriod. Same problem. Will keep eye out for add

ShowOfHands · 04/04/2016 13:45

It is happening all the time. Are you trying to fix it?
