I’ll take to look, does changing shields options make a difference?

If I disable all shields it worked.

With shields up but all options unchecked, it also worked.

Put on ‘block cross site trackers’ and then the website failed to function.

When you enable block cross site trackers, can you copy/paste the items?

Sorry copy/paste what ?

@fanboynz just chasing up on the cut n paste, thanks

When the issue shows up, copy the blocked items in shields, and paste here.

Gives us an idea on what is being blocked, and maybe causing the issue.

sorry, how ?

When I enable it it comes up and says 2 Ads and others blocked. But how do I find out what ?

The V shaped icon on the side seems to be able to download some files but nothing relevant.

My error, just re-read since it’s on IOS. Try selectively disabling each shield option, see which option fixes it.

Typically just tried again and is now fine. Not sure if Tesco have made a change.

Maybe it’s been serverside all along? I guess who knows.
