Huge ads not scrolling

[Lonelycrab]

Got a new one here, for me at least. Huge ads taking up top half of screen, I understand there are some pretty big ads but this one stays static and doesn’t scroll.

Once a scrolling ad appears, you’re left with an entire screen of advert as per screenshot

I'm on the iPhone 7, through Safari.
The ad just appears as I'm reading, and takes over the entire top half of the screen.

They pop up at different times then stick across the screen while you scroll etc below. Once up they don’t go until you click back or another button on the menu.

Thanks so much for this information - very helpful. We're working on this right now.

Those who are having this issue, please do keep letting us know the device/browser/OS you're on.

iPhone, happens on Safari & Chrome. 80% of pages, at the very top of the screen.

I’m on an iPhone, Chrome ( is that a browser? ), 15.2.1. For me, the ads come on randomly and then are ‘stuck’ for as long as you stay on that page. They’re the size of normal ads., but they don’t scroll, and obscure the top line of the reply box, while you’re typing. When you go off that page, you have a period of freedom, until suddenly, there’s another ad. The ads are normal size - half a page - but don’t scroll, and seem to be ‘magnified’ so you can only see a close up picture.

I got a cute piglet!

These aren’t legit MN ads at all, are they
Something dodgy going on.

This one just popped up right after (long) first post! Often it’s later in the thread though.

iPhone, Safari. The big ads are popping up while you’re reading the thread, so after the OP but they sort of pop up over the thread.

I’ve got the cows now, but had red cap woman before then.

I keep getting lung cancer ads. It says that I've shown an interest! Well my exH from 40 years ago has it and I really don't care as he subjected me to violent DA.

Gah! It’s all so annoying especially when you’re then scrolling past another advert so 90% of your screen is adverts.

Chrome. Android.

And the add pops up usually within about 10secs of being on the page

Same for me (i-phone & safari/chrome).

Basically every thread, every menu, every page. Getting very wearing.

Came to post a thread about this and it seems I'm not alone.
All I can see is a pig or two cows.

Yup, makes the whole site unusable, I’m coming off mumsnet until the ads are removed.

I was glad to find this thread as actually, I assumed mumsnet were putting these ads up on purpose, caring more about their greed than the people trying to use the site.

I’m still somewhat skeptical. Time will tell I guess.

iPhone 8, safari,

Yes definitely something dodgy about some of the links. A couple of them I put the url into google and it came up with nothing

That seems a bit worrying.

Got it in duckduckgo on android. Maddening.

iPhone. Chrome. Pain in the arse adverts still.
