Aldi pop up advert

@Ric

Sent you an email mate.

AdGuard gone back on!

 

[Ric]

Thanks for letting me know mate, I've contacted the ad company to work out where it's coming from and get rid of it.

It’s still popping up every two minutes grrrr...

 

[mcfc_ms]

Just got it to. I am the chosen one apparently

Every time I click a link. Do Aldi know about this because I’m not going in till they stop stalking me, :)

 

[dronefromsector7G]

I’ve just had six pop ups for fuck’s sake

 

[Ric]

The ad company have made another change. Has it stopped now?

Nice one, thanks. If anyone else is still having issues just let me know and hopefully we'll have it fully resolved soon.

Is it me or does the ad company not give a fuck every time Ric asks them to remove certain ads that make the site unusable on certain devices and just replaces them with similar?

No, that's not correct. These rogue ads are just as problematic for them as for us. Posted this a few weeks ago, but it gives a better explanation as to why and how this happens:
