I've had 5+ emails about the same 2 posts on a thread. No one else has updated it, I'm just getting an email every half an hour. FYI.

OP posts:

DavetheCat2001 · 09/02/2019 17:11

Same here...

PrincessScarlett · 09/02/2019 17:32

Just come on to say I've had about 100 email notifications this afternoon, all about historic threads I've followed. What's going on?

VelociraptorRex · 09/02/2019 17:33

Me too, about 20 of them, all about the same thread but there's no updates actually posted

Stardustinmyeyes · 09/02/2019 17:38

Yes, so have I

TeeniefaeTroon · 09/02/2019 17:56

Me too, my inbox is full of notification emails.

Purplepricklesalloverhisback · 09/02/2019 17:56

Me too!

Zillaindie · 09/02/2019 17:58

Same, 7-8 but all the same thread.

Totorosfluffytummy · 09/02/2019 18:30

Yes this is getting really annoying now

toomuchfaster · 09/02/2019 18:31

Yes, and even when I went in and reset my email preferences to none!

Discombobulated9 · 09/02/2019 18:37

Me too

PrincessScarlett · 09/02/2019 18:45

Still getting inundated with email notifications. This is really annoying!

TheLionQueen1 · 09/02/2019 18:57

Me too, have just turned all notifications off and they've stopped but got about 8 in a go

jinglet · 09/02/2019 19:11

Same here. It's so bloody annoying- go away Mumsnet!

Stardustinmyeyes · 09/02/2019 19:26

@MNHQ Please stop with the repeated e mail notifications. I've had 20 in the last 5 minutes

Cakeandmarshmallows · 09/02/2019 19:47

Same here!!!

pinkhorse · 09/02/2019 19:48

Same!

WhatTheNightBrings · 09/02/2019 20:05

Sounding more and more like MN need to shut the forums down whilst they get to grips with whatever Shit Show their tech are throwing.

LouMumsnet · 09/02/2019 20:07

Thanks for alerting us to this issues. We're so sorry about though - how annoying!

We've alerted our tech team and will hopefully have a fix and some answers for you very soon.

acatcalledjohn · 09/02/2019 20:23

I have had about 50 notification emails since 10am this morning despite not having read any threads since then.

3boysandabump · 09/02/2019 20:28

I've had to put my phone on silent because the constant emails are driving me mad. I've had 60!

KindnessCrusader · 09/02/2019 21:06

Me too.

LouMumsnet · 09/02/2019 21:54

Thanks for your patience, everyone. We know this must have been hugely frustrating for you all to have your phones pinging away like mad.

We've had a chat with our Tech team who've assured us that the issue causing this has been disabled for now.

It shouldn't happen again

But if any of you continue to be bothered by it again, please do shout out on here or contact us directly on [email protected]

Thanks all.

Stardustinmyeyes · 09/02/2019 21:59

@MNHQ

The repeated email notifications haven't stopped for me

RainbowMum11 · 09/02/2019 22:29

Me too - I even completely rejoined as a new user, and still getting millions of emails.

acatcalledjohn · 10/02/2019 09:27

Much better for me now, thank you!
