ad covering screen

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

I cleared the cache/cookies but the ad is still there - I’ve had to log in all over again to comment on this thread. I can guarantee that fewer than 1 in 10 of this suffering these infuriating ads are actually taking the trouble to comment 🙄🙄🙄 (iPhone on safari)

Me too. All cleared logged back on then happening again within 15 mins. iPhone 12

It’s very annoying

WeCome1 · 12/03/2023 09:38

What is more annoying is that I’ve cleared my cache, it didn’t work but now I’m logged out of everything.

Still happening for me too, despite clearing everything. Will probably just stop using Mumsnet if it doesn'tgo away. And no, I don't want to download yet another app because the mobile site isn't fit for purpose.

Hi everyone,

We're incredibly sorry that these ads have been causing so much disruption. We're grateful to everyone who's provided screenshots and URLs and we're hoping to have an update (and a resolution) very soon. Please bear with us for a short while longer.

Closed all safari pages. Cleared Cache, cookies. Ad free for a short period now it’s back. Top banner taking up half page on iPhone on some ads.

Me too. iPhone using Safari. Ad always seems to be for La Rdout (I don’t want to encourage the algorithm!).

It’s awful

Hi again,

Just to let you know that this issue should be fixed by now. We're sorry again for all the disruption these ads have caused.

Hopefully that's an end to it but please post here if you're still seeing any of these ads. Thanks again for your patience while we sorted this.
