Pages jumping to animated ad at the bottom

What's happening?

Every page I load, or go back to, I'm directed not to the top of the page, nor where I was before, but to a smurf playing football, or, just now, an animated mobile phone.

I could be thankful that at least the pages are loading not hanging, but this renders them just as unreadable.

iPhone SE, Safari, mobile site.

Thanks so much for all of the information.

Tech are still digging and trying to replicate but hopefully it won't take too long.

It is still doing this for me on my iPhone. Bloody annoying.

WooWooChooChoo · 10/03/2017 06:23

This is still happening on every page for me. I'm using safari on an iPhone.

ClaraLane · 11/03/2017 08:13

This is happening for me on every page I go on, including this one! Also using safari.

RedBugMug · 11/03/2017 09:57

Same issue for me on every page

HotelRedFace · 11/03/2017 14:44

Me too. It's driving me potty! This page just did it - Safari on iphone using the latest IOS. Luckily I have just received a book in the post from a lovely Mumsnetter so I'm going to put my phone down and immerse myself in that until this is fixed.

IvyLeagueUnderTheSea · 11/03/2017 17:37

Happening here too.
iPhone with latest updates and safari.

DoIDareDisturbTheUniverse · 11/03/2017 22:13

Happening again. MN basically unusable again. Please fix it.

AgentProvocateur · 12/03/2017 09:25

This is driving me insane. You can't scroll up until the slow-loading ad has appeared! It seems like every week there's a different glitch - all ad-related.

MadameCholetsDirtySecret · 12/03/2017 10:45

It seemed to stop yesterday but it's happening again today. 😤

AgentProvocateur · 13/03/2017 06:57

MNHQ, can you give an update on this please? It's fine on my iPad but still jumping the the ad at the bottom of the page on my iPhone (safari). TY

AgentProvocateur · 13/03/2017 08:05

Hmm, since my last post an hour ago, it seems to be better. Long may it last!

LornaMumsnet · 13/03/2017 09:29

Long may it last, indeed!

Is it happening for anyone else this morning?

Phalarope · 13/03/2017 13:23

Doing it now, on every page, on Safari on iPhone

LapinR0se · 13/03/2017 20:14

Still doing it

LadyCassandra · 14/03/2017 11:29

Still doing it. It's annoying as I bookmark everything and it jumps straight past!

LornaMumsnet · 14/03/2017 13:41

Thanks all, tech is still looking into this!

savagehk · 14/03/2017 15:02

This has been driving me nuts. Windows 10, Chrome. Luckily I just tried Firefox and it's OK so will be using that in the meanwhile!

ceeveebee · 14/03/2017 15:43

This is happening on every single link I click on - active threads, threads I'm on, every thread I click - driving me crazy, I might even have to do some work this afternoon!

savagehk · 14/03/2017 20:49

It's fixed on Chrome on Windows 7!!!!

.... I think......

Quodlibet · 14/03/2017 21:55

Aghgh this is maddening; safari on iPhone still not working.

IvyLeagueUnderTheSea · 14/03/2017 22:00

It seems to be ok here.
Safari, iPhone. Latest updates.

ceeveebee · 15/03/2017 08:38

I just updated my iPhone software to 10.2.1 and now it's fixed!
