Black areas on mobile

Anyone else get this? If I'm browsing the site on my phone if I've come back to my browser from using another app the thread will be all fuzzy and have random black blocks all through it before I refresh.

Simple fix but still annoying. :s

Do you think the Black Screen of Death has engulfed MN head quarters which is why there isn't an update...

Mumsnet won't load on my Samsung A3 through chrome at all since the appearance of Chrome changed the other week (some sort of update?) so I've been blaming that.

I had to download another browser (Puffin) and it works fine through that.

Was coming on to post about how it had been okay for a couple of days but was now happening again this morning but couldn't post on this actual thread because of it!

I clicked the black advert and it took me to the M&S website so I agree with PP that M&S are behind this.

Happening again.

Was also when M&S banner was at tip as a PP suggested.

Been happening for me for ages too and also noticed today it seems to be M&S.

Black boxes on screen and posts start repeating down page. Each page is fine after refreshing.

Awful for me too. Its on almost every post. Why hasn't this been fixed already? It's been going on for ages

HyggeHeart · 21/10/2018 09:38

Me too 😬!

SilverHairedCat · 21/10/2018 09:44

Yes, it's the bloody M&S footwear advert from what I can see - at least, that's what's on the top band advert at the time this happens.

sluj · 21/10/2018 09:51

Me too. Given up on mumsnet for now

ANiceLentilHotpot · 21/10/2018 09:51

Glad I found this thread, thought my phone was dying. It's been happening for a while now (although randomly hasn't happened while I've been reading this thread!). Its so annoying because I've not been able too follow the Strictly threads

Any news MN?

SilverHairedCat · 21/10/2018 09:54

Gaaaaah, come on @MNHQ, this needs fixing!!

Maybe the M&S advert only comes up after this has cleared away?

It's hopeless. I get the same posts repeated again and again in a thread punctuated by black squares. Impossible to read threads

LEMtheoriginal · 21/10/2018 11:06

Same

rolymoomoo · 21/10/2018 11:11

Exactly the same here. Been happening for weeks and worse than ever this morning. Literally every thread corrupted. Also chrome on Samsung S7.

TillyTheTiger · 21/10/2018 11:25

Any updates @MNHQ? It's putting me off browsing mumsnet Sad

Pipnik · 21/10/2018 11:59
