Top banner making me want to throw my phone!

Hi.

The top banner, the "it's maternity leave" legal one, is about 5x the size of the others and is covering half my screen.

I'm on a Nokia Lumia.

It needs to go.

I hesitate to post this in case it all goes pear shaped but I'm on iPhone /Safari with none of these issues.

OddSocksHighHeels · 16/04/2016 12:52

I'm still getting it Sad

DiggersRest · 16/04/2016 13:09

Me too. Really annoying, is it really that hard to sort? Confused

HQ. The damn Crieff hydro ad is still blocking a third of my mobile screen. Makes it impossible to do anything!

TheWeeBabySeamus1 · 16/04/2016 14:29

Creiff ad still blocking screen on iPhone.

DawnMumsnet · 16/04/2016 18:15

We're so sorry about this ad. Sad

We have our Ads team and our Tech team working on it, honestly. Off to give them another prod.

LitteRedSparke · 16/04/2016 18:24

Oh ffs

I've got the shitty creiff too. So annoying.

DawnMumsnet · 17/04/2016 09:19

Hi all,

In an effort to rid the site of this pesky ad, our Ads team have asked if any of you would be prepared to click on the ad and post the click URL. They can then block it in the system to see if that helps.

We realise this is probably the last thing you want to do, but needs must!

Many thanks in advance.

m.crieffhydro.com

That can't be what they want, can it?

Good Grieff Hydro must be delighted with the exposure - 2 threads and an invitation to click through.

NickNacks · 17/04/2016 10:02

I don't understand why you guys can't click through? You must own mobile devices?

you guys - you mean MN?

i read that first as posters... Grin and had a sarky comment for you...

NickNacks · 17/04/2016 10:31

Yes sorry, I meant anyone at MNHQ. I don't see why we should have to risk our devices when it's simple enough for anyone (most of the population) with a mobile to do. They shouldn't be asking anyone to do something that they are not prepared to do themselves. Just my opinion of course. Peace and love and all that Grin

LitteRedSparke · 17/04/2016 11:24

agreed - i would hope that they wouldnt allow a link to a virus though - surely MN actually check all the links they take money for?

NickNacks · 17/04/2016 19:53

It's happening with more and more adverts now.

I don't work for MN but have you cleared your cookies and cache on your mobile devices once MN Ad team did their thing?
(backs out of the room in case my suggestion doesn't work and causes more issues)

RaeSkywalker · 26/04/2016 09:25

I'm getting the same thing as Tiggy - worse than the CH ad!
