Live chat adverts?

Why are posts having ‘live chat 24 hour’ adverts in them, with pictures of young women laying down in little clothing? Surely there are more appropriate companies that wish to advertise on Mumsnet?

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

are you able to show a screenshot of these ads next time?

It really helps us track down and block these ads. We use image search.

They are mis categorised by Google and slip through, which is a real pain! We block dating apps/sites and of course anything pornographic.

thanks in advance

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the delay here...

@TY78910 sadly we can't block specific images nor does Google allow us to block proactively these ads... they are mis-categorised as "General"

Unlike on Web we are unable to block look-a-like, so it's often a whack-a-mole job!

I've only found one ad that I could find/search, so I wonder if these have gone or reduced?

Please let me know if thay haven't!

Thanks

EDIT:
I made a few blocks on the 14th as seen in this thread. Hoping this has covered these as well!

@Hairyfairy01

Glad to hear! If they slip through again, please let us know!
