I’m not getting the pop up on CF on my my iPhone today - so apparently someone fixed it since last night. I did download Adblock last night at binster’s suggestion, and it appeared to work. This morning I’m using Safari, and no popups, so like I said, it appears to be fixed for now. I don’t think Adblock would prevent it just by it being on my phone.

For iPhone users, two workarounds:
1) Go to Settings > General > Restrictions (enter your iOS password) > Websites > NEVER ALLOW, then enter “nextgiftcard.top”, then select “Done”, and back out of Settings. Now, instead of getting the gift card pop up, you get the Safari pop up alerting you that it is trying to go to the restricted site “nextgiftcard.top”. This is only slightly less annoying than the gift card pop up in that you can back out of the Safari pop up with one click of the “back” button, or
2) Follow binster’s suggestion of downloading the Adblock browser instead of Safari.
Neither option is ideal, but provides workarounds until the site fixes the problem.

Time to get some new IT problem solvers, because the current ones sure as **** don’t know how to solve issues.
I only get the pop up on this site and only with my iPad.

Why do we need to install a new browser just to view this site? That only invites more ways to get problems on your device. (And, I’m not yelling at you, just saying it’s crazy for a “client” to have to try to work around a hosts ongoing issue)

I'll try the restrict that site but I also wonder if I can do it in my iPad or iPhone why iBrands can't purge its site of this hijacking. Like others, this issue is solely at this site and makes it unusable on my mobile devices.
