So I clicked on a thread I had been commenting on and this appeared across my screen. Couldn't see an X to close it and it didn't disappear. Came off the thread and back on and it's gone again now. Strange. Hmm

I'm getting the same as sptownmama. On iPhone safari. No X to get rid & any click on ad takes me to new tab website. PITA.

Salty is right, don't blame gift gaff, the problem is the scaling of the ad bannernot the ad itself

LassWiTheDelicateAir · 20/11/2016 01:31

Fenella your one really takes the prize !

giraffesCantReachTheirToes · 20/11/2016 01:33

Yup so annoying. No option to close them have to shut page

ophiotaurus · 20/11/2016 03:37

I have it too. There was another that I didn't screenshot. I'm on an iPhone with safari.

Two in the past two minutes. Getting sick of it now.

MermaidofZennor · 20/11/2016 05:47

Taken these three screenshots in the space of a few minutes. Mumsnet - wtf now???? First there were the stupid pop ups that buzzed and now there's these enormous banners that make your site unusable.

It's all very well needing adverts but at this rate you will have no-one to advertise to Angry. V pissed off.

Hoped something would have improved when I logged on this morning.

Unfortuneately not, still unusable.

More disappointing is the lack of response from MN. Even a quick ' we know and we are dealing with it' would help, but i guess the site is so big now that they really feel they don't have to bother. Lose a dozen posters? Meh, plenty more out there.

Shame the Daily Mail don't pick up on these threads.

Will try again later.......

It feels worse this morning, has happened 3 times now.
On an iphone website, not the app.

TheSparrowhawk · 20/11/2016 07:40

Come the fuck on MNHQ, this is not a hard thing to fix.

insancerre · 20/11/2016 07:48

I'm on my iPod because I'm having problems on my kindle fire with mumsnet freezing
Now I'm having problems on my iPod with giant ads
It's like mumsnet is trying to get rid of me by making the site unusable

Mummyshortlegz · 20/11/2016 08:02

I'm continually having to refresh the page. It's absolutely dire. I know the content is nothing to do with you but your ad space is broken!

MarthasHarbour · 20/11/2016 08:24

I think your ad space is being trolled. Geoffrey again?Hmm🤔

MermaidofZennor · 20/11/2016 08:30

And again, twice, in quick succession.

It's the weekend so I don't think they will do anything until Monday. It's happens this way in the past.
For a site so big I think it's really bad they don't have out of hours support. Members of the site have to moderate inappropriate threads overnight. It's ridiculous.
