I think it was a weight loss ad. When you try to skip the ad, it directs you to their website. The ad itself was a bit odd too. It was a bit fat shamie.
I paid to remove ads ages ago, but fuck me it's annoying so invasive some ads are and how they try and trick you into things. Like fuck offffff, maybe come up with a legitimate product and people might be interested!
Right. I only get ads in between pictures or if I choose to watch ads for points.
I can ask my husband later what he did to get it started again if you like. I just need to know what device you use. I use my Samsung tablet. He asked me if I do any banking on it which the answer was no. He said that's fine and over rid something and it started working again. Hope that makes sense. Lol.
Makes total sense, thank you!! I use it on my phone, with which I do do banking, soooo maybe I'll just wait and hope it comes back, lol. I think I had it on my little tablet as well which doesn't do anything important so I can maybe over ride it on that. It'll be fine. Thank you!!!
No worries. I made a post on today's thread about it.
