We're looking into this right away and the matter should be solved in 24 hours. Sorry about the inconvenience folks, but this is not the way we do things on Team-BHP.

Please PM me in the future with such complaints for a quicker resolution.

Thanks

Update : This category of ads has been entirely blocked. Please do report such ads in the unlikely event that you should see them, so that we can censor them right away.

Thanks.

Thanks, That is wonderful !! ^^^

GTO, Has the blocking been done only for the Mobile site or also in the Android App too?

I got this query as i didnt receive any App updates for the TBHP App in Google Play store.

As per GTOs post, you shouldn't be facing this problem anymore, however, do contact Tata DoCoMo and complain, they should refund your money. (See Delta5's post 2 pages back - he managed to do this successfully in one phone call)

Its controlled via the ad server, so no need for an app update to make this change.

Re: Team-BHP App for your Android Phone & Tablet

The offending ads have been blocked. Advertisements are still present in the app.

What device is this for? I'm not sure if it will be supported, but since the app is FREE why don't you try it out and reply back.

MHG yes it works perfect in galaxy Y and Galaxy S2 (Since i am using both). No issues faced. But only thing in Y, downloading of pages are very slow compared to S2 on GPRS. I havent tried using 3G. Also I havent tried it on Pocket and Chat since i dont own them, but if u wish one of my friend have Pocket will try and let you know.

Thanks a lot! I don't think you need to try it in Pocket and/or Chat because the screen resolutions are identical.

Guys,

Thanks for pointing this out. We've temporarily disabled the notifications until this matter is resolved.

By the way, do note that you could switch the notifications off via the App settings. For it to come into effect, you have to kill the App and then restart it.

@GTO thanks for looking into it. I signed out of the app, I was still getting the notifications. In fact when I disabled the notifications and restarted, the notifications were still enabled.

BTW this was not happening on my iOS devices.
