Is anyone else having trouble with a pop up from a well know telephone company. It pops up when I am looking at ‘I am on’. When I close it because I do not want to enter the competition, it kicks me out of Gransnet. I tried to include its name in the title but it kicked me out when I did that! Its name has two initials, the first is the second letter of the alphabet and the second is something you drink with a slice of cake! ( I did not want to risk being kicked out of the site again by typing the name. )

Yes i have been having this problem for a while, but its not just the well know telephone company its other big companies as well. Its so annoying.

yes - iPad and iPhone - I've switched to my laptop to avoid it.

Hi coincidence ? Just read above post and then same company screen shot popped up, as above.

Yes I've had it twice on IPad, but supposedly from Virgin Media, my broadband supplier. Seems fine on laptop, so far.

Yes me too

Had the one beginning with B about half an hour ago after accessing via the ‘I’m on’ link. It would be good to have some reassurance about site security.

Hi again, our tech team have had a look and made some changes, so it shouldn't be happening anymore. If they do, please let us know by either posting on this thread or emailing us at [email protected]. Thank you grin

Just happened in the Lorraine Kelly thread when moving to the next page. Would suggest this isn’t fixed.

Still happening ?

Nothing on my iPad

Twice today when I have logged on, I have had a LIDL spinning wheel, for entry to win something. It only goes away when I close down the page.

Sorry, that should have read ALDI, and it took ages to post!

My iPad has frozen after multiple bt pages opened I'm having to turn it off see if that works

Auntieflo Fri 22-Mar-19 16:22:15

It keeps happening, and when you click on the X to close ! It just keeps on going.
Are these photos any use to the GN gurus?

Just came up as a sky message

tanith Fri 22-Mar-19 16:32:15

This is what I get

tanith Fri 22-Mar-19 16:33:05

You can see the multiple tabs that keep opening

JasmineGransnet (GNHQ) Fri 22-Mar-19 16:34:17

Thank you again for those screenshots, we've passed them on to the relevant team and should have the problem sorted out asap!

Same here -
