0 RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) Just spoke to Vodafone . Basically , whenever you press "agree " or "allow" then 3rd party companies can contact you in this way . Vodafone have placed a bar on this so that I don't get any nasty bill surprises if I accidentally pressed a button . no probs with Vodafone . Great service . I now have to go into my browser and delete : history/ cash cookies . I suppose it's a heads up if anyone else has experienced this 😼 Edited March 22, 2019 by RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted March 22, 2019 Author Share Posted March 22, 2019 Thanks ped😺 I firgot for a moment , that maybe I should have posted this in site issues ? Yes it's my home broadband . In a way , it could happen on any site I was browsing on, but it just happened to be Basschat 😸 all the best 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ped Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 Yeah I'll whack it in site issues in case it helps anyone else. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 xgsjx Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I got it this morning. Opened up Safari on my phone & got the pop up (BC is usually the last page I was on, so it's normally the first page to open). Closed Safari & opened again. all fine.

0 Moos3h Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I've had it too - I think some of the ads are hijacked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Woodinblack Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Yep, I had it here, just looking round if anyone else had, first time I saw anything like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 Okay . This is getting weirder by the minute . I was just browsing on another forum and no problem . As soon as I came here, I saw the bell noting me of additional comments . Then all of a sudden, the same page appears and my iPad was getting redirected to that site . It seems that basschat have got it from somewhere . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ped Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Must be one of the google ads. It happened before and they sorted it, I’ll report it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 I just logged in here . Again . Straight away , it's here . When pressing the 'close ' button it doesn't shut down the page. it goes straight to the marketing site . Annoying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 dave_bass5 Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Ive had similar but from Virgin media twice last week. Definitely not legit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
