On my iPhone, I’m having a major problem with a google ad that keeps popping up and redirecting DXP to another site to win a fake prize!!

It’s happened 100 times. I can hardly use DXP. I have to keep refreshing. Most of the time, it doesn’t stop redirecting. Ugh it’s sooo annoying. It’s been going on for two days. I cannot handle it anymore.

Things I’ve tried-

Using safari, using chrome, clearing search history and cookies, restarting my phone, checking for updates

It doesn’t happen on my computer so it has nothing to do with my username. It doesn’t happen with any other website, just DXP

Please help me fix this!! Thanks in advanced!!

I have a magical solution that will instantly fix that. Pay money and subscribe to dxpnet
Irony has it I seriously played with a thought of subscribing but since this ish happened, the capricious streak in me got activated as I refuse to be “bullied” into anything least of which involves paying for something! 🤬

It just depends on how long you honestly want to be here. If just as few months then no, I wouldn't recommend subscribing. But if you really like the place and enjoy the people I totally would. Plus you're helping the site out, so rather then paying to just remove ads you are investing into a better site, and better expirence for you and everyone else.

Yea, if that’s their tactic, it’s really rude. I can hardly access this website on my phone

If you try using DuckDuckGo you might have better luck! I did and I’ve been pop up free the past 20mins which is a huge improvement.... W h i c h leads me to believe it is not dxp admin tactics at play but rather google/safari bound bug.

I didn’t download that one, but another one! So far so good. But let me give it a few! It’s only been 4 minutes lol

When I was using my 7 plus that piece of sh!t keep happening. But after I switched to iPhone X it stopped lol
Hmm I got the 8....

Well, I’ve been here since 2011 so that’s saying something...albeit with probably longer spans of asbsence then presence...but I digress! I’m aware you spoke in general terms and I am inclined to agree particularly with latter part. Helping out the site/admin was the main driving force to begin with. At any rate...the verdict is still out on my count! ;p

If I may pry, Soul, have you subscribed by any chance?

Yes I have. I'm on here daily. Free to write what I want, and take in all the content as I see fit. I feel like I kind of owe dxp something in return for all the years they kept updating and making the members happy. Dxpnet is one of a kind, and imo nothing can honestly replace it. They aren't asking for much, so I feel more then happy to subscribe to something that means a lot to me.

Happened to me yesterday, it stopped today.

You are not the only one.
Just once or multiple times? It’s driving me crazy
Over and over again, it was consistent af!

Do you dxp on an iPhone like me?

If so it kind of fixes it self in a couple hours. 👌🏼

It’s been going on since yesterday. Yes I use an iPhone like you. Thought maybe switching browsers would work, but nope. So far the ad blocker I just downloaded is working

Take all the time you need 😄 just know the above suggested site is not a pop up blocker software but rather a search engine...for future reference ...should you ever need it! 😉

Oh! Didn’t know that! I’ll try it next if this doesn’t work. Thank you 😁
