Anyone have suggestions to get rid of this Amazon shopping page bug that pops up on my screen every few minutes while I'm on tigernet? It just started doing it this morning

There are ad-blockers that would probably do the job, but paying the $6 and change every month to support the site helps me sleep a little better at night.

That isn’t it. I’ve been dealing with this for 4-days now. So have many others. Common theme seems to be mobile I-phone devices.

I guess I should have been more specific. Upgrading to Premium level won't change anything in that regard, but upgrading to Ultimate level gets rid of all the ads.

B-Meist said to clear cache.

He also said upgrading to ad-free would help, though it's not something they are doing on purpose to push that.

However, I did see a couple of paying members said they have the same problem, so I'm not sure upgrading is the answer.

And finally, it's not really Amazon or any other reputable website. This is an ad scam...people maliciously manipulating online advertising to direct people to fake sites.

It depends on which level you upgrade to. Premium members still get all the same ads as free members, but Ultimate members don't get any ads at all. Ultimate is $6.67/month if you pay 12 months at a time, which is definitely cheap enough to be worth it for me to not have to deal with any ads on desktop or mobile.

What's weird to me, is that I only get that ad when I use the mobile app. It

Correct. That's the experience for everyone that is having the issue. It's a recurring problem, comes and goes. I'm not sure why TNET seems to have more struggles with it than other sites.
