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. )

Still happening for me. In fact just happened as I was trying to write this post! Infuriating.

Just happened when trying to navigate to page 2 on this thread. New really concerned about bugs on this site. Need a proper response please admin.

Just happened to me for the first time while reading this thread. Took a screenshot but don’t know how to post it. It started, “Dear Sky customer”, which I am...

It’s totally ruining my enjoyment of Grandsnet!

I'm getting it now I'm on my iPad. Didn't get it today when I was on desktop.

Kandinsky Fri 22-Mar-19 20:13:47

Off to watch the telly.

tanith Fri 22-Mar-19 20:52:20

It's insane why aren't they fixing it angry

NanaandGrampy Fri 22-Mar-19 21:01:52

Yes, it keeps happening to me too! I give up ?

NanaandGrampy Fri 22-Mar-19 21:04:37

This is what I’m getting continuously

Kittye Fri 22-Mar-19 21:18:56

Same here giving up. So annoying !

Bibbity Fri 22-Mar-19 21:23:49

I’ve had this exact problem! It’s not happening on other sites as well so I assume we have all picked up a virus from gransnet?!
I’ve just tried to delete my phone and restart it which is taking AGES!
I’ve lost loss of info as well!

Urmstongran Fri 22-Mar-19 21:45:35

My iPad too! Pretty much constantly since 4pm and it’s now 10pm. Says it’s from BT and I have chance to win an iPhone in the next seven days. But hurry to answer these quick questions .... erm, no thanks!

Gonegirl Fri 22-Mar-19 21:47:11

It's got to be a virus. It could wreck Gransnet! They need to get onto it.

Marydoll Fri 22-Mar-19 22:13:31

I haven't experienced this!

Gonegirl Fri 22-Mar-19 22:18:15

Are you on an iPad Marydoll?

Marydoll Fri 22-Mar-19 22:21:59

No, Google Nexus

MawBroon Fri 22-Mar-19 22:24:13

Nightmare!
It is only happening to me here on GN and greets me as “Dear BT customer”
??????y annoying!

Gonegirl Fri 22-Mar-19 22:25:10

Wonder if it's just on iPad then. My iPad uses Chrome.

Gonegirl Fri 22-Mar-19 22:26:43

Perhaps it's just on iPads and phones. confused

Hi all,

Many thanks for reporting this. Our tech team are looking into this as a matter of urgency so we’ll hopefully get it sorted for you as soon as possible.

Still happening on my phone, when I went to my daughters yesterday it popped up but instead of bt it was virgin, my daughter has virgin broadband, it is just on gransnet, doesn’t happen on anything else.
