‘Oi you! Sign up!’ - but I already have

This is just rude. And annoying, especially when I come to the site having clicked on a link in the daily email I’ve been signed up for for ages.

Hi NomNomNominativeDeterminism

Thanks for flagging this - there was an error with our targeting which we have fixed now, so you shouldn't see it again.

In terms of the wording, this is one of many tests with various copy we have running across the site currently. We're always keen to get direct feedback from users, so thanks for letting us know Cake

Thank you

Argh. Still happening @AmyGMumsnet albeit slightly more politely.

If I weren’t already subscribing to the daily email this would not make we want to. It is really annoying.

Thanks so much, OP and sorry it's still happening. Has it happened since Friday?

Hi NomNomNominativeDeterminism - thanks for letting me know and sorry about this.

Are you definitely logged out when you're seeing these pop ups? And also if you can tell me the device you're seeing them on that would be really helpful. Thanks!

Yes, still popping up, and yes, even when logged out, have shut down, have cleared search history. I’m on an iPhone.

Thank you! This particular set of ads is only meant to show to people who are logged out - are you seeing it when you’re logged in too? Thanks for the info about the device, I’ll feed that back now and we'll get this looked at.

Thanks for coming back to us to let us know.

This particular batch of ads is specifically designed to show only to logged out users, so if you log into your MN account on your iPhone you shouldn't be bothered by them any more.

Of course if they show up while you are logged in please do let us know!

Thanks also for your feedback about the wording on these ads Flowers

Hi @AmyGMumsnet when is this ad due to go off air? I don’t want to have to log in just to avoid it.

If I unsubscribe from the daily threads email will that make a difference?

Oh look. It’s not just me who finds this ad annoying.
