It does it all the time on my android phone using Chrome.

[Megaflow]

Nobody who works for PH going to help here then?

It is all but unusable now. Literally every page there is a cookie pop up. There will be one when I click submit.

Have this on Android using an ad-blocker that uses VPN. Turn off the ad-blocker and let it do it, then turn it back on. I'm guessing it's blocking cookie storage or somesuch...

Maybe some applicable answers here:

Thank you. Turning off the adblocker, installed because of PH’s inability to police their adverts correctly, then dealing with the pop up appears to have worked.

Come on, PH - get this sorted!!

I can't view PH on my iPad because of the constant cookie pop-ups. I've changed nothing - what the hell have YOU done different in the past few days?

[CarAbuser]

uBlock has filters that allow blocking of cookies popups along with all the malware infested adverts that pistonheads likes to push on us.

[littleredrooster]

Thank you, PH, problem now sorted. Don't know what you did, but normal service has now been resumed.

Since PH Towers doesn’t give enough of a toss to respond, have another oh-so-brilliant experience ..



Yes, yes, my search history blah blah. This is an advert for a tittle tattle ‘news’ site.

If you want me to stop using PH just tell me.

After starting another thread on this , because I didn't spot this one on page 2 , I have now found a fix.

Instead of constantly clicking on Agree , click on Disagree instead , which I did by mistake , seems to work so far .

ok I was getting it on my mac but I just just cleared website data by Safari > Preferences, then click Privacy search for PistonHeads and delete. And I also emptied caches which you need to turn on developer mode (Safari > Preferences, then click Advanced. Check Show Develop menu in the menu bar) and then to Delete the Safari cache:

Near the middle of the menu, you’ll see an Empty Caches menu item. Select this, and Safari will delete the files it’s stored on your Mac.

doing the 2 items above seems to have fixed it.

Ok, so this has now suddenly struck me on Safari on my iPhone (12 pro). Every page load, thus infuriating privacy popup appears.

It coincided exactly with the software update to iOS 14.6.

[dvs_dave]

Still doing it. Cleared all safari history data, as well as cache….no difference. iphoneOS 14.6

[CoolHands]

Thanks chaps I’ll stick on 14.4 for the minute then!

[dvs_dave]

Seems to have stopped doing it now. Been good for a week or so now. Just forgot to update here as it was back to normal. So whatever you did behind the scenes worked for me at least.

[TTmonkey]

Every page load. Started yesterday.. suspect iPad update to blame. Any fix?

[TTmonkey]

Fixed this by using ‘remove all website data’ on the iPad.

Then when I went to log in, it refused to accept my PH password that had recently been changed (so was known by me). I then had to do a password rest by email. Then the issue stopped.

I suspect it was down to the iPad auto saving a complex password in some way.

Cookies pop up on every single page or click now....


How do I cure this?!

Same issue for me, Chrome Version 93.0.4577.63 (Official Build) (64-bit) - solved by clearing cookies.
