Mini adverts on the scroll bar.

I keep getting little mini adverts right across the scroll bar at the bottom. Is this happening to anybody else?

On my Android phone.

They stay on there for maybe 20 seconds when I click onto a new page/come onto MN, & then disappear. It's really annoying.

Hi there @ReallyReallyReallyAm. Can we ask what browser you're using on your phone, and if this is still happening if you use a different browser?

ReallyReallyReallyAm · 30/06/2025 11:30

Hello Hebe, I'm on Google chrome, is that what you mean? I only have this on my tablet also so can't check anything else sorry.

"Wanna try it from behind?" Manga type advert popped up on the site whilst scrolling.

WTF?!

Wrong!

Oh! user, Mine have all been just boring ones, at least!
(Whispers) It hasn't been happening today, so maybe it's stopped!

This stopped for a little while but it's back again today.

Gah! Sorry to hear it's back @ReallyReallyReallyAm. We'll have another look now. If you see it again could you click on the ad to grab the url for us? Or if not could you send us the url for the page you're on when it appears? Thank you!

ReallyReallyReallyAm · 23/07/2025 11:57

I've got no idea what that means sorry! What do I need to send you after I've clicked on the ad?

Happening with me also. iPhone safari

ReallyReallyReallyAm · 23/07/2025 23:46

It hasn't happened today. Seems random but I'm not sure what the link is!

@ReallyReallyReallyAm just saw another one. Or its adverts for aid for gaza

JoMumsnet · 24/07/2025 12:55

Hi @shellyleppard and @NewAgeNewMe - if you're still seeing these ads, could you please try to grab the URL of the ad itself, or if not, the URL for the page that you've seen the ad on. Thank you.

shellyleppard · 24/07/2025 20:27

@JoMumsnet best I can do is a screenshot if it helps....not very technical

NewAgeNewMe · 25/07/2025 07:48

Photo also not a url. Wouldn’t know how.

Photo also not a url. Wouldn’t know how.

You can do this by clicking on the ad with wifi and data turned off, so it loads the link but not the ad. Then copy the URL.

But a screenshot is useful too - you can either paste it here or send it to us at [email protected]. Thank you!

NewAgeNewMe · 25/07/2025 16:55

Ok I’ll try

If you can manage a url @NewAgeNewMe that would be amazing. Can we also ask what country you're posting from please? Thank you!

SwedishEdith · 28/07/2025 21:17

Yes, I've been getting these - Jet2 adverts. Very annoying.

NewAgeNewMe · 28/07/2025 21:50

U.K. @HebeMumsnet
Tbf I’ve not noticed it today.

NewAgeNewMe · 29/07/2025 05:34
