Taking up nearly half of my screen view. I’m glad it’s been noted.

Same here - ads taking up literally half the page!

Are we counting full page ads in the middle of threads as problematic?

I'm not, no, as i can scroll those away. The ads that are giving me issues remain on the screen and everybody's posts scroll under them, if that makes sense.

Dibblydoodahdah · 12/03/2023 09:31

I’m also having this problem and it’s ridiculous. I can’t search for anything else once I have clicked on a page. I am going to have stop using Mumsnet unless it’s resolved.

TheyclosedmyCosta · 12/03/2023 09:32

There's no way to close them either. If you could close them they’d still be massively irritating but as you can’t it actually means the site is almost unusable.

BeBraveAndBeKind · 12/03/2023 09:34

I have Hotel Rui ad covering the top third of the screen. Android running Firefox

GrazingSheep · 12/03/2023 09:35

Its a complete pain now

TheChosenTwo · 12/03/2023 09:44

I knew there’d be a hefty thread about this.
And no, I don’t want to buy a fucking Mercedes Benz 🤬

ProfessorPlumInTheLibrary · 12/03/2023 09:45

This is happening to me too. Massive ads from TOAST covering half my screen. On Safari on my laptop. Clearing cache/cookies makes no difference. It's making the site unusable.

GrazingSheep · 12/03/2023 10:17

Orange earrings from Thomas Sabo now

Casilero · 12/03/2023 10:19

Same for me. I've tried clearly cookies but not made a difference. It's impossible to read the threads on my phone as ads taking up just under half the screen.

Mabelface · 12/03/2023 11:33

Still not fixed then. See ya when it is.

The OP has privacy concerns and so we've agreed to take this down.

Same here, Mercedes Benz ad blocks half my screen.
iPhone and Chrome.

Any updates @MNHQ?

Greydogs123 · 12/03/2023 12:19

I keep popping back to see if they’ve done anything to fix it, no luck yet. Surely, they are noticing a difference in their traffic if we’re all having the problem.

Elerandooo · 12/03/2023 12:38

Becoming a right pain now! Even when you think you’ve got onto a thread without one popping up, it just randomly pops up while you’re reading. Makes it impossible to click back to homepage or search anything.

Someone let me know when it’s fixed, I’m out til then!

Deadringer · 12/03/2023 12:39

This is how much screen I have when typing this. Ridiculous.

Me too leaving now

Akite · 12/03/2023 12:44

Came on to look for a thread, I knew there'd be one about this! It's ridiculous, even reading this thread give you a 1/3 page banner ad followed by a full page ad in the thread itself.

It’s now in the way of being able to open notifications…

I've also had this today and it's extremely irritating.

Eaterofcheese · 12/03/2023 13:03

I'm also getting this on chrome for android.

Persipan · 12/03/2023 13:09

I'm sure this has already been noted, but these top-of-the-page monster ads are clearly not displaying at the correct size (unless the Hotel Riu Plaza really is in 'Manhat').

Clearly needs fixing - it's getting in the way of being able to see my Mercedes ad properly! 😂

Really bored of this now @MNHQ.
The site is becoming virtually unusable

Same here, came here to report it. So frustrating. iPhone on safari. The ad jumps to cover 1/2 the screen.
