Ads everywhere now and I've lost my premium features.

Ironically, the ad in the top panel is encouraging me to sign up for Premium!

Hi BoreOfWhabylon,

That sounds frustrating - we'll take a look and see what on earth's going on here.

BoreOfWhabylon · 14/07/2021 15:40

Thanks @FlissMumsnet. It's making MN unusable for me Sad

I had this a couple of months ago - annoying isn't it?! I signed out and back in again, and that seemed to sort it for me 🤞🏻

BoreOfWhabylon · 14/07/2021 19:20

Hurrah!
Thank you @dexterslockedintheshedagain that seems to have worked Flowers

Yep, the adverts are back for me too Angry

MNHQ you really need to sort this out, no ads is the main feature of the Premium service!

BoreOfWhabylon · 15/07/2021 15:44

@LaLaMelyn signing out and in again fixed it for me.

Ads are back for me - great big red vodaphone ones

blueirises · 20/07/2021 08:31

I've got ads too. Had to get a new password because I can never remember it, and they're still there.

BoreOfWhabylon · 20/07/2021 09:17

Did it ask you to accept cookies when you signed in? I find that's what causes it to happen.

blueirises · 20/07/2021 09:23

No, I don't think so. Also, it's ok on my laptop.

Are ads really the main feature of premium? So if you have an ad blocker on then there’s not much point?
YelloYelloYello · 20/07/2021 09:32

Sorry, I meant no ads.

Whinge · 20/07/2021 09:35

@YelloYelloYello

Sorry, I meant no ads.
Premium advertises a perk of having fewer ads, so there will still be some even if you pay. If you have Ad blocker then from what I've seen it's similar to having premium with regards to ads, and in some cases you actually have less ads than those who pay for premium.
LaLaMelyn · 20/07/2021 15:24

It's the main feature for me - problem with adblocker is that it was causing other sites I use to not work properly, and it kept letting ads through as well. I don't get any ads at all on MNPremium when it's bloody working , despite the promise being fewer not none.

CarolineMumsnet · 22/07/2021 13:28

Sorry for the delayed response here Blush.

We think the ad issue should now be resolved. If not, do let us know.

WildWestWanda · 23/07/2021 17:48

It isn’t, I’m getting them today

hugoagogo · 25/07/2021 21:46

Most annoying

Hello,

Can you try logging out and back in again?

hugoagogo · 02/08/2021 09:36

I know your're not interested, but they are back.

JoMumsnet · 02/08/2021 10:03

We are interested, @hugoagogo, and we're sorry to hear this. Did they disappear for a while and now they're back?

We're getting this looked into again now but in the meantime can you please log out and in again, just to check if that makes a difference.

hugoagogo · 02/08/2021 11:07

They reappear every few days. I log out and in again and it only solves it temporarily.
Android phone and chrome browser.

JoMumsnet · 02/08/2021 11:44

Thanks, @hugoagogo - we're looking into this again and will be back with an update as soon as we can.

BoreOfWhabylon · 02/08/2021 13:07

@JoMumsnet it seems to happen when prompted to accept cookies on signing in.
