Blaziken · 22/10/2018 20:53

Yep, happened to me.

Winterlight · 23/10/2018 06:54

I’m getting it too, is a redirect advert: spreedlp.com

I had this too. Sony, Google. I ended up closing my browser entirely and clearing my cache, history, cookies etc. Seems to have sorted it.

Hi All,

Thanks for raising this, I just have a few questions.
Are you all accessing Mumsnet through a link or are going directly on to the site? Also are you on the app or mobile site?

Thanks.

MemoryOfSleep · 23/10/2018 11:02

Through a favourites button on my home page. Mobile version.

fairlyhumble · 23/10/2018 11:04

I am having trouble with mumsnet site atm. Big black patches and distorted text.

NightmareDaemon · 23/10/2018 11:04

It is not happening to me if I use my browser to access mumsnet, only if I click a link through the FB app (it opens a pseudo browser, if you know what I mean, see my screenshot in my first post).

Whilst browsing MN this morning I keep getting redirected to another site telling me I’ve won an iPad. Have blocked the site so I’m now getting access restricted when it tries to redirect me! I’m accessing MN from favourites on an iPad

LizzieMumsnet · 23/10/2018 16:13

Thank you again for the information, I have hopefully blocked it, but if you do see anything similar can you send the URL, Screengrab, how you are accessing the site, is it Mobile or app?

Thanks

starfish71 · 23/10/2018 18:19

Keep getting this too, really annoying! Using safari on iPad.

Spiderdemon · 23/10/2018 18:36

Am also getting black patches like a scroll through pop up. And then text repeats & distorts. For a while I got a redirect to some spammy advert but now I have blocked popups again - yet still get black patche. On

Spiderdemon · 23/10/2018 18:36

is stopping me post! on mob site

LongDivision · 23/10/2018 21:04

I'm getting this too, also on iPad. In the middle of reading a thread (ie not touching anything) it will redirect to spreedlp.com. Only happens with mumsnet.

mrsSOAK · 23/10/2018 21:33

Same here as with LongDivision

BathshebaOak · 23/10/2018 21:53

Me too, same as LongDivision. Not happening on iPhone, only iPad and only Mumsnet

Crimples · 24/10/2018 00:18

Same here, iPad in favourites. Please sort this out, happening every couple of minutes for 2 days now, beyond annoying now

LongDivision · 25/10/2018 18:47

Seems fixed now - thank you!
