THE POPUPS ARE BACK!!

Those bloody irritating pop ups that tell you that you have won a phone and make your screen go weird!

We had this a few weeks ago. Anyone else?

Yeap I reported yesterday, along with several other people. The usual response ‘we’re very sorry, we’ll get right on it’ etc
Still happening today. MN need to stop with the platitudes and actually put some of their considerable revenue back into sorting their technical issues

I was just coming here to post the exact same thing (just started for me this morning). Logging off now as the pop ups are appearing every couple of minutes rendering the site unusable for me.

Hi all

We know our general line when this happens can be annoying, and we know that this seems to be happening rather a lot.

We need screenshots and if possible, the URLS of the popups in order to block. We have tools in place to prevent, but adverts sometimes disguise themselves which makes them really, really tricky to find.

Please do give us as much info as possible, including devices and browsers.

Sorry Flowers

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD Someone asked this yesterday. I’m pretty sure that your public, not private, IP and I doubt it’s of much interest to anyway.

However with MN’s shocking track record of protecting user details I asked them to delete my post showing it.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 12/05/2019 18:07

They took mine & others down on the last thread moaning about pop ups because of them so I just did it this time.

I agree with Gatoadigrado personally, that they’re probably not of much interest.

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 12/05/2019 18:57

Yeah so I called them a m bag of and that they could my and thats why my post was deleted.🤫
