Well probably not, but just swiped back after reading a thread and it popped up. In fact it popped up as I was typing this.

First time I had three windows open, mumsnet and a natural geographic article, second time just mn open.

I'm on iPhone 6s and fully up to date with software.

Oooh I won an iPhone!

Hi folks,

Thanks so much for the information - we can only apologies for the inconvenience that this is causing.

We think an advert may be causing it but we're not too sure. We'll let you know as soon as we know more. Brew

Hi All,

I think we have found the reason for this happening and stopped it, please do let us know if you still continue to see that iphone spammy popup, that is not approved to run by us.

Thanks

Uhoh, OP is onto us, Angie!

Sisters, would you settle for a Brew and a slice of Cake?

We're talking really good tea and lemon drizzle, surely better than a phone?
