Padgey Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I've been having issues through the app, some Google thing coming up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyoung Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Thought it was just me using Chrome on Android but the ad pop up was taking over the whole site. Could barely access the forum, was pretty intense. Cleared data and cache which seems to have worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Yep. Same here. Ran a scan. Cleared cache rebooted and now ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marathonsteve Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I had an issue 1 or 2 days ago but seems to have cleared itself now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombfrog Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 If you get a gold membership then not only do the ads disappear but the little black boxes at the bottom of the screen which tell you somebody has replied start working again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marathonsteve Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I have gold but I clicked on an ad in error then it wouldn't let me in for a time even after switching the computer on and off a few times but all is now well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e9t3 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Today I had a bad one on Chrome for Android. Multiple redirects + back button hijacking - felt like I was on a dodgy porn site not efests Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyoung Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Happening again. Definitely something going on with the site. It's a pretty aggressive pop up. @eFestivals any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycra Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Definitely something up...keep getting lots of redirects to pages of spoof competitions which attempt to get your bank/credit card details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e9t3 Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 (edited) Currently completely impossible to browse on Android (Chrome) for me. Redirecting popups appear after about 5 seconds after loading up the site. Edited May 9, 2019 by e9t3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuie Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 Hey everyone! For £18 a year you can get rid of all adverts and help to ensure efestivals survival at the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e9t3 Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Same issue again. Out of curiosity, why doesn't efests use Google Ads? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
