They are running in the box you write in, and have never gone away for me, so I work around them.

Now they are ones that you need to click on to make them go away.

There's a 'skip ad' button, which counts down 5 seconds before it allows me to click, then when I click they don't go anyway.

If I try again I get "Snap! Something has gone wrong" message.

Have you tried ADBLOCK it's free to download and helps stop ads. Great tool to have. getadblock.com/en/

I have an ad blocker thing on my phone already.
My phone is so clogged up with "stuff" though.

Perhaps things are not working as they should.

You can download and install adblock plus MissAdventure. Also try clearing your cookies/browsing data.

Click the 3 dots at the top right on your Chrome page, come down and click 'clear browsing data' that should help clear out some things for you.

If you use Chrome here's the link for adblock plus.

adblockplus.org/download

Thank you.
I'll have a go at both.

If I clear the browsing data first, then I might have room for ad block. smile
