Irritating HUGE ad pop up to get the Mobil QVC app when on my iPad

I have to click "NO" every time I  come to the website now. Wonder how long this will go on for?

It's always something with this website.  If my husband wasn't retired I'd tell him to go fix it.....he was an IT specialist for 36 years.  He can't believe how messed up this site is.

Lots of threads -- it is a huge image filling the screen.

 

If you're seeing this enormous QVC promotion for their app (screenshot below is from my iPad)

try tapping on "Continue to Mobile Web"

which I highlighted with a blue arrow

(the tiny words below the red "GET" box) 

and it should vanish.

 

If that doesn't remove it, go to the mobile browser settings and delete all cookies/cache/ website data to see if that eliminates it.  

 

From my trial-and-error, the usual adblocking or pop-up blocking settings and mobile apps are not preventing this.  
I have them enabled but even so this appeared at the top of the page.

 

For those who aren't seeing it on your mobile devices, I included the top part of the Community

as it appears directly below the ad

to illustrate scale.  

It's quite large, to put it mildly, and there's no "X" on it to delete the box.

 

Not everyone is seeing this.
Seems to me the website isn't displaying the same things for everyone.

I hope this helps!😊

@SeaMaiden, Are you seeing a different pop-up with a "No" selection?

Yes, I can click it to remove it....but doing it many times gets old. And it is so BIG

@SeaMaiden,

It's outrageously nonsensically big.  
For what it's worth, the "Brave" browser on my iPad suppresses that huge thing (so far, anyway -- hoping that doesn't change), so it's not visible and no clicking/tapping is needed.

@dooBdoo   Thanks! Will look into that! You are so computer savvy! I admire you 🙂

 @SeaMaiden.  You make me blush. 

You're very kind to say that.  Thank you.
