Annoying pop ups

295 replies

NoWordForFluffy · 22/03/2019 09:24

I keep getting an annoying pop up which can't be closed and takes me away from the page I'm on when I 'close' it. Some dodgy, 'You have won' pop up.

I'm on the mobile site on my iPhone using Safari, iOS 12.1.2.

Can this please be sorted?

Popping back on another device to see if this is sorted yet.

Any news?

Lovemusic33 · 24/03/2019 17:24

Had a few hours without the pop ups and now they are back 😭

ticolac · 24/03/2019 17:31

Back for me too now. None this morning. French ad back too.

LilyMumsnet · 24/03/2019 17:32

Should be gone again now - sorry about that!

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 24/03/2019 17:33

Thanks Lily 🤞🏼

NoWordForFluffy · 24/03/2019 17:56

Nope. It's just come back for me!

It was another French ad as the cause.

Come back for me too. This is beyond ridiculous

WednesdaySpinner · 24/03/2019 17:59

Just returned for me too having been missing since last night.

3boysandabump · 24/03/2019 18:00

Jjjjjjj

MashedSpud · 24/03/2019 18:01

It’s some nouveau French ad that’s causing it. It’s happened three times in the last three taps for me.

3boysandabump · 24/03/2019 18:01

🙈 sorry my 7 month old was trying to get in on the Mumsnet action

EntirelyAnonymised · 24/03/2019 18:04

Worse than ever

HeronLanyon · 24/03/2019 18:05

Much worse than ever ! For me it is very closely linked to the pink ad french - could that ad simply be quarantined as it does
Seem to be infected !!

NewspP · 24/03/2019 18:05

It’s getting worst Confused

Myextensionisgivingmeaheadache · 24/03/2019 18:06

This is so annoying MN.

NoWordForFluffy · 24/03/2019 18:07

How and why are you letting infected ads onto the site, @MNHQ, that's shockingly piss poor, quite frankly.

It stopped all day and has now started back up with a vengeance. It took me over 30 attempts to post this, having to close the page each time and try again.

Trickybrief · 24/03/2019 18:07

Happening to me too, pop up diverts to a false fb page

IHateUncleJamie · 24/03/2019 18:08

It had improved but it’s just started again. Gah.

SinisterBumFacedCat · 24/03/2019 18:08

It’s back!

HotpotLawyer · 24/03/2019 18:09

OK, well that's the end of my MN-ing for another day because I will be away form my computer and it has started doing it in my phone again.

What IS it? I am getting worried that it will infect my phone or something.

I think it is that pink and magenta French ad.

But FFS, MNHQ, you are a multi-million £ business, surely you can sort his? It's pathetic.

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 24/03/2019 18:09

Back here!

BubblegumFactory · 24/03/2019 18:10

Happening loads to me too , literally just happened 3 times
