My IF sub expired and I'm seeing ads. I even renewed said subscription only to discover FT Premium is in limbo. Can someone also help me with blocking these ads please? Its a big drain on mobile browsing for sure! Thank you.

You're taken care of.

I think i am approaching my subscription expiration - can you extend it?
Will pay whenever the adfree option becomes available again.

When it expires, let me know. I can't do it until it drops.

seeing ads now and pm mailbox is full...

Fixed!

Indeed it is. And now for the first time since 1846 I am seeing adds all over the place with no premium service in sight.

Is it B.C. or A.D.? :p

Its actually Stardate. ;)

Thanks IBobi by the way.

Much appreciated btw!

My pleasure

No solution yet?
 

I'd happily pay to have an "ad free" experience

I normally read FT using my iPad, my "fat fingers" often accidentally open ads

Although this may be good for IB as I guess "every click through helps"

No Ad free FT option at this time
 

Recent received and took effect today.

No sure where to direct this post, so will start here.

1) Disappointed the choice was to re-introduce (even if temporarily) ads for folks who had longtime supported the community with a subscription. Why could not the "ad free" option be continued until a true option was available?

2) This choice will drive more to the "free" option of ad blockers and foreclose future participation in any new program.

3) The announcement seems to be parallel of the customer unfriendly approach some airlines use -- with a lack of forward looking info. When will new info be available? Only a tease of what may come but in the meantime I get ads and someone gets revenue from those ads.

Believe this has been handled poorly.

While I wish there was an ad-free version available to all members, remember you were supporting Randy Petersen and not really Flyertalk.com. IB was being generous to give you ad-free access for the past few years even though Randy Petersen was not involved with this site.

I understand the need for change but get the new method in place before turning off the old method -- there has been plenty of time to do that.

Another negative -- my PM ability has been disabled as I exceed the "free" limit.

What else has this broken? To this longtime active supporter of FT, this feels very customer unfriendly. Forcing ads and not providing an option (and even a timeline for the option), disabling functionality, ....

I must admit it has been eye-opening to see the aggressive amount of ads on FT. I understand the need for revenue, but lacking any other choice I will not tolerate the ads.
