I've moved this into the Technical Support and Feedback forum where the problems you're experiencing can be picked up by IB's tech team.

The irony! The instructions are half covered with the &%@*% ad I am complaining about. Lol. It's readable though. Will have to do this from my pc later.

Not as bad as yesterday but still experiencing issues here with the Internet Brands ad. Also concur that these videos are slowing thing down drastically.

Looks like the ad i posted above has gone. Oh how i'd like to find who does that and burn their office/room/dungeon to the ground. Anyway, admins, while i'm here i've noticed for quite a long time that in some threads (often where the page has a wiki or pics added perhaps stretching the size of the page) the ads in the right tend to shift over the posts (iphone 4s uk):

Still got issues here in Chrome, Edge, Opera and Firefox, and also had fiddler running, with just Chrome, and happy to provide the logs to the tech team, as there a number of denies on the log.

Was beginning to think it was my pc. Seems to be okay now that I've signed in and no ads, so was it the ads appearing when not being signed in that completely wiped out everything on the page except for the header and ads, blank page and IB button at the bottom?

I'm sure the tech team will look this over when they're back this following week.

Yup it is back for me as well in iphone 4s ios 9.whatever the current one is, cant use ft from safari just now, instantly redirects to that advert. Here is the full link that appears. Erm, didnt realise it was so many lines of nonsense so have deleted.
I have tried clearing safari data and restarting, no joy. Thanks as always in advance ibobi + team!

And another one for the crappy game of war advert, on a 4s with iOS 9.2.
Makes FT totally unusable on mobile
