P&O Cruises ad

This is a really annoying ad. It pops up over the top of a thread, and you either have to scroll to see what's underneath it, or dismiss the ad. It's awful.

Hi @Lougle

Can you please give us some details about the device, the browser and the version of the site you're using? It looks like you're using the desktop site but we just want to double-check - we've had some issues with this ad in the past when people have been using iPads and tablets.

Thanks in advance - we'll be able to take a closer look once we have all the info.

Lougle · 15/07/2024 18:44

Apologies - I forgot about this. I am using a laptop on Chrome, Version 126.0.6478.127 (Official Build) (64-bit).

I'm finding this annoying too. I'm also using a laptop on Chrome.

Smokefreezone · 16/07/2024 16:01

Happening here too for the last couple of weeks. Safari on iPad.

LilyMumsnet · 16/07/2024 21:42

Thanks all - we're looking into it and we'll be back when we have more information for you.

HebeMumsnet · 17/07/2024 10:19

Morning, everyone. We're still trying to track this one down. Next time anyone sees it could they click on it and send us the url and/or let us know which thread they were on when the ad appeared? Thank you! Flowers

It happens all the time in food/recipes section.

LilyMumsnet · 17/07/2024 14:31

Hi all

Please can you click on the ad, and share the link that it takes you to with us?

Goodwitch9 · 17/07/2024 17:48

I'm not keen to click on a pop-up to be honest.

Lougle · 18/07/2024 16:14

Having clicked through, it's an annoying and persistent pop-up ad.

Thread I was on:
https://www.mumsnet.com/talk/property/5122302-neighbour-asking-for-ps5000-compensation-for-scaffolding?reply=136871374

It takes you through 4 pop-ups, then follows this URL:

HebeMumsnet · 22/07/2024 12:33

Thanks so much @Lougle . We'll pass this on and see if we can track it down with that.

skyeisthelimit · 24/07/2024 16:08

This pop up just appeared at least twice in a couple of minutes. Using Chrome on Desktop.

skyeisthelimit · 27/07/2024 11:53

Still popping up - chrome on desktop. Are MN still looking into it?

Lougle · 28/07/2024 15:52

@DawnMumsnet @HebeMumsnet @LilyMumsnet This ad is still terrible. It's popped up 5 times in 3 minutes today. (Chrome on PC)

OP posts:
skyeisthelimit · 30/07/2024 17:57

@HebeMumsnet @DawnMumsnet @LilyMumsnet the advert is still popping up repeatedly while trying to read a thread.

Chrome on desktop.

Any update on when this can be stopped?

LilyMumsnet · 01/08/2024 14:37

Hi all,

Just to update you - a majority of these have now blocked. We're just finalising one more advert, and then it wont cause any further issues.

skyeisthelimit · 01/08/2024 14:47

fingers crossed then. (I just came on for an update as it's still happening.)

NerdWhoEatsMedlar · 03/08/2024 21:56

Just popped up 5 times while I tried to browse Active.
I'll bog off for another week, site is unusable.

skyeisthelimit · 04/08/2024 11:22

Sill happening. Is there any update on when you will be able to stop this? It's been 3 weeks since it was first reported.

HebeMumsnet · 05/08/2024 10:20

Morning, everyone. For anyone still having this issue, could you try clearing your cookies and then let us know if you're still seeing anything? The ad should be completely gone now.

skyeisthelimit · 05/08/2024 14:31

Just cleared the cookies and the first thread I clicked on after that, the P & O ad appeared in its usual place, in the bottom centre of the screen.

skyeisthelimit · 06/08/2024 15:47

Hi, the pop up is still happening repeatedly despite clearing cookies

LilyMumsnet · 06/08/2024 21:46

Thanks both - we're back on it now. Please bear with us and we'll update when we can.
