Subscriber - why is my screen full of adverts?

Same. A "powered by PEDALTRIPR" cycle touring ad on the right hand column.

I have fixed it now. I was trying to tick the box on my phone but after I swapped to the pc, it has remembered my option.

I'm not a subscriber but I don't get a fraction of these. I definitely would give up if I had this level of ads.

The worst offender is the one on the left hand side (Miele, in my example). That encroaching into the text is a relatively new development. Second most irritating is the one at bottom centre, which also reduces the amount of text visible. The rest I can easily tune out. But put it all together and there is a tiny scrolling window (no deeper than the author's by-line in the example above) where I can actually see the full width of the content I come here for. Hoping at least some of this is an error.     

That would drive me nuts. Out of those I tend to only get the top right, which doesn't go over any of the articles so it's easily ignored.  Does it make any difference if you use a different browser?

The worst excesses of the left hand panel are a problem in Chrome, but not Edge for me. The bottom banner covers the content regardless of browser.     

I tend to avoid the google-sphere so can't comment specifically but none of these issues arise on Safari or Firefox.  Firefox works everywhere, is free and also automatically blocks third-party and social tracking. I realise Chrome can also do this but with Firefox it's by default, and if the left and bottom ads are spoiling your viewing then you could give it a go.  It's a decent browser anyway, so maybe worth a try.

Thanks. Work PC, so my options are limited! 

Thanks Jack

I never noticed the No Ads checkbox before in my profile. Is this something that is manually changeble for subscribers, ie if it happens again we can go in and check it? Or is it only a visual clue and not something we can change?

Hooray! One tip: untick the box, save, then tick again. Brought to you by the IT Crowd. Worked for me.

Now I can stop worrying about exactly why I got targeted with some specific ads...

That worked, Cheers.

A couple of days ago the bottom pop up started being about the Vuelta and GCN, at last something relevent.

It's when they try and sell me Bentlys thet you realise that AI isn't that particularly good.

I had forgotten how clean it looks without ads and how fast everything becomes.

I find it strangely comforting that 'targeted' ads are so wide of the mark. It's either stuff I don't want, or stuff I bought last week and won't be buying again for [x] years ("oh, so you like washing machines? well check out these washing machines").

Nope, still here for me at the moment. 

Maybe they are fixing one by one (and not alphabetically either). Do you still have the PedalTrippr ads on the side of the forum or as a main "article" on the front page as that is where I could still tell when an Adblocker was actuallly on doing the job I had paid Road.cc for.

Same here now. 

Or a full refund. 

Malta - sounds good

The Maltese authorities have announced that from 30 June 2021, arrivals from the UK will be required to present proof of full vaccination. This will exempt travellers from self-isolation.
