Hi- The huge blue ad that blocks the screen for 30 seconds every few minutes is absolutely the worst. Please get rid of this advertiser. It makes my head explode. Thanks.

We have not authorized any such ad so I don't know what you are talking about. Could you please tell me the advertiser? Also, what device and browser are you using?

It’s a navy federal ad but one can just scroll to get rid of it. Or wait 15 seconds. It just is a static ad where scrolling fades it away.

NP here. It's not just Navy Federal. There's at least one other for some drug called vyvgard or something like that. I've seen them on Chrome.

I get Navy Federal or it is just a big Blue and black block that says “please rotate your device.” I am using Safari on an IPad. I double checked to make sure pop-ups are blocked and they are. It is basically a huge pop-up that blocks the entire screen for 20-30 seconds. It happens once every 2 minutes or so.

Applebees ad - full page, you have to swipe to remove it, then it reappears (on my iPad). Makes the site borderline unusable.

No idea what the add it but it keeps telling me to turn my device so I can see it. It happens every minute or two. Interrupts the entire page, it is awful. And no, I am not going to rotate my iPad or phone to see the ad.

We have had this before but I can't remember how we stopped it. I will have to look through some old emails.

I just clicked the outside edge of the ad, yep, it’s NFCU. Nothing happens when you click in the middle of it. You either have to scroll all the way down the page or turn the iPad sideways to make it disappear for a few minutes.
