Aldi advert with spinning wheel

I keep getting the spinning Aidi too!! Very annoying 😡😡

This reminds me of an MP who criticised a website in Parliament for showing ads for pornography 😉

I want to know why I am not getting them! What am I doing right?

Hi again Gymstagran, thanks again for the screenshot, it's very helpful. Do you or anyone else on the thread happen to have the Gransnet URL for where you have been seeing the ad?

Just came up again , accessing forums, active, relationships, boyfriend enmeshed with adult daughters on mobile site

I don’t get an Aldi ad just those stupid three women and the cake stirring one which are incredible annoying but they are GN ones and there to stay I believe

I think one of those women may be a Gransnetter, who still posts.
Of course I may be totally wrong.😁

As it's a Gransnet video, it's probably here to stay.

Can't stop these Aldi spinning wheel scam ads coming up every few mins. Just lost post and looked in notifications. Can't find anything there either. 😡

I have just had £ 3.90 taken out of my bank by the spinning wheel ad as I tried to get rid of it,the beast fought back

How could that happen? How would anyone have access to your bank details? I'm intrigued, that is worrying.

* Marydoll* it is worrying.
The only on line shopping I do is with Tesco and occasionally Amazon,Granset is becoming a worrying place with all these flipping pop ups and adverts,hard to get rid of them as they dont respond to the cross be clicked on.
I also have an ad blocker

Thanks, downtoearth, but I wondered how on earth they got into your account to take money. I am shocked.
It might be worth changing your passwords and informing your bank.
..or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

They're not stupid women, they are Gransnetters who volunteered for a GN makeover and I know at least one of them is still posting (I saw a post by her today).
She looked lovely both before and after the makeover.

If GN decided to re-use the videos all this time later it's not the fault of the volunteers.

I just had another one.
Has anyone managed to get rid of the Aldi wheel?
It happened when I was reading posts this time, not halfway through writing one.

I haven't seen it - yet!

I'm hoping i got rid of it. I haven't seen it for a while. Somehow I managed to delete all the cookies. Try clicking on any three dots that appear on the screen above the gransnet page . I had an option appear to delete cookies and that has seemed to work.

I was using Firefox for GN and getting the annoying ads plus having difficulty posting because the phone keyboard would freeze and simply not respond.
The same happened on MN but on no other forum or site.
Using Chrome I got the ads but not the frozen keyboard.
Then I changed to Ecosia and GN no longer has those problems for me.

Often, when I buy something online, Google offers to save my password and I always say no.
If I said yes, would that mean my card details could be accessed as down-to-earth's seems to have been?

That explains it.
I don't save cards, nor passwords for sites, because no matter how secure a company say their systems are, there will always be very skilled hackers, as we know from recent cyber security breaches.

Never seen it and touchwood don’t get annoying adverts, particularly moving one’s
I am on iPad I wonder if that makes a difference?..

Farnworth thinking about it my card is in my Anazon wallet,and my card is registered to my Tesco account.
The spinning wheel seems to move about where you are clicking to get rid of it so you accidently click on paying for a spin of the wheel.

I use a Samsung tablet and phone. I don't get adverts popping up. I wonder what I'm doing right.

I have exactly the same. It is my PC, which is the problem, yet I use Chrome on all of them.

I use an android phone. I can use my laptop but can't access my phone photos. Apart from its small size, I prefer the phone for most things.
I also don't save passwords and hope money can't be extracted.
But recently Amazon charged me nearly £100 for Prime which I didn't know I had.
I told them, they returned the money which had been extracted from my account!
It is worrying.
