This ad covers the whole screen, and I can just about nearly see one line of Mumsnet beneath it, and I have to turn off and turn on again to clear the screen

Hi again

If this is still an issue for you, please could we ask that you clear your cookies/cache? We are hopeful that this will resolve it, but please let us know either way.

I’ve cleared my cache but not helped. Using iPhone

Currently my view, and associated url.- sorry it’s so long I just clicked and copied the whole thing in case it’s more useful. I’m using a fully updated iPhone 12.

Also, again if it’s useful, when I click on the ad it goes to the French site.

moggerhanger · 10/03/2023 17:36

Cookies and cache cleared but still happening for me.

ForestLilac · 10/03/2023 17:41

Came here to moan about it to find it’s doing it on this very thread 🤦‍♀️.

I cleared my cookies and it went away.

trilbydoll · 10/03/2023 19:06

Same problem in Samsung Internet on my phone - although Chrome is fine. The advert is for canvas holidays who we literally booked with last night - of all the times to advertise to me, this is not it, I can't book anything else with them even if I wanted to!

moggerhanger · 11/03/2023 08:55

It seems to have disappeared now, but instead I have this pissannoying ad that won't close no matter how many times I tap it.

Came here similarly as just started getting them this morning.

Mine was a big ebay car ad (not Mercedes sadly!) Which covered half my screen. Android phone. Really does make it unreadable. Plus combined with the large ads in the thread too its a lot of scrolling through ads.

Someone mentioned the promoted by mumsnet masquerading as threads too - that's also driving me nuts.

Very close to finally giving up on mumsnet and I'm a regular user

FuoriComeUnBalcone · 11/03/2023 09:57

Cookies and cache cleared but now I'm getting this.

PacmanIsLost · 11/03/2023 10:05

This is happening to me too. Mobile site using an iPhone with cookies cleared. This site is becoming impossible to use.

plantaneswilldo · 11/03/2023 10:18

Trying to clear your cookies AND your cache.

MrsRobinStrike · 11/03/2023 11:05

Still happening . @JoMumsnet @LilyMumsnet any solution?
If it's happening to many users on many different search engines and many different devices..... The fault must lie with the one common factor ie mumsnet
I took a screenshot but can't add it as a massive ad is now blocking this screen

Whyismycatanasshat · 11/03/2023 11:09

Happening to me too; fully updates iPhone 12; have cleared the cache etc and no difference. It’s making the mobile site unusable.

MillicentTrilbyHiggins · 11/03/2023 12:08

I cleared everything on my browser. Which is actually annoying as now I'm logged out of every thing.

Anyway. It didn't help. I'm still getting the ads. A jewellery one this morning (Thomas Sabo) but has been different everytime.
