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.

This has happened to me 3 times now on the mobile site. It’s annoying coz there’s no option to cancel and if you click ‘close’ it takes you to the site anyway.

guiltynetter · 18/02/2018 16:43

this has started happening for the first time today (and i read mumsnet every day) it has happened about 7 times and it’s so frustrating 😩

MyKingdomForBrie · 18/02/2018 16:47

Use Chrome, doesn’t happen.

gamerwidow · 18/02/2018 16:49

Still happening just popped up for me using iPhone and safari

MirandaWest · 18/02/2018 16:51

I just got it too. On iPhone on safari and reading a conspiracy theory thread.

LooksLikeImStuckHere · 18/02/2018 16:52

iPhone, Safari, conspiracy thread.

Twickerhun · 18/02/2018 17:16

And again here. At least 3 times since I posted yesterday and I haven’t been on MN much because of this, so it’s happening pretty often!!!

APipkinOfPepper · 18/02/2018 19:17

Just started happening for me again too

Oooh I won an iPhone!
PhelanThePain · 18/02/2018 20:32

Happening all day for me. iPhone 6 safari mobile site.

LizzieLestrange · 18/02/2018 21:45

This has happened to me about 5 times today, it’s so annoying! I’m on iPhone 5s.

SpidersWilliesOnYourFrillys · 18/02/2018 22:10

Again Sad I’m trying to read the conspiracy thread and this is the third one and I’m only on page 7

Oooh I won an iPhone!
DistractedByIrrelevance · 18/02/2018 23:49

Happened at least 20 times today. Making MN unusable. Don’t even want an iPhone 7 thanks.

Hi all,

As we said on the other thread, this has taken a little longer than we'd originally hoped for - sorry, folks.

We're nagging our adops team today - it shouldn't be long now. We'll keep you updated and thanks so much for bearing with us.

Datun · 19/02/2018 10:53

I've been getting it, and again this morning. iPhone, using Google Chrome, on the feminist boards.

I also couldn't get rid of it, on Chrome. (Apart from deleting and reinstalling the app).

But DS has now shown me how, if anyone else is having trouble.

UnimaginativeUsername · 19/02/2018 11:20

I’m still getting it. Increasingly regularly. It’s really irritating (and only on MN).

LizzieMumsnet · 19/02/2018 11:36

Hi All,

We are really sorry this issue continues to persist, we have been investigating with our partners and it seems that whatever was causing this issue last week has managed to cache itself in your phone's memory - can we please request you clear your cache and let us know if this fixes the popup from appearing.

To clear your cache for safari browsers you simply need to go into your settings, click on safari and clear history and website data.

Please let us know if this does the trick?

gamerchick · 19/02/2018 13:08

Roger, ty Smile

LornaMumsnet · 20/02/2018 11:16

Hi folks,

Do run over to this thread if you're having any further issues with pop ups. You'll also find a handy link on how to clear your cache.
