NZThey usually work, but think twice about using them. It seems these ad blocks are sometimes effective, but free sports streaming sites, for instance, can now obviously detect your ad blocker, so you don't get past go. The other thing people need to think about is that a lot of free sites we access are free because they have ads - but if everybody has an ad blocker, such free sites are no longer viable and will go out of business eventually. The reply to my comment by AdBlock is appreciated and makes sense. I don't mind ads on free sites as long as they are not too intrusive or try to hi-jack you to somewhere else!

GBAdblock is now asking users to upgrade Adblock is now asking users to upgrade, with those pop-ups near the top right of the chrome window. Interesting. Adblock is now doing what it says it prevents. Ads. For itself. I understand Adblock is a business, however have some integrity guys. Adblock spamming us with ads is beyond ironic.

NOI bought Premium because it promised to… I bought Premium because it promised to block floating video/popup ads, but it didn't deliver on their promises. I asked for a refund and got a reply and my money back within less than 24h. I am happy with the cusomer support and will continue to use the free version until I have a reason to upgrade, or find something better.

GBAdBlock, it works for me - make sure you get the real/genuine one ! AdBlock - seems to do what it says really well (Jan.2019) ONLY from getadblock.com or Chrome Webstore downloads . Cuts down most adverts & stops all those annoying instant video ads, or at least most of them. Also reduces the amount of bandwidth / data transfer that each web page uses. . BE AWARE there are many copies of AdBlock and separate AdBlockPlus (- some of the immitators / sound-alike copies are allegedly malware/spammers) . (At Jan.2019 - AdBlock is on getadblock.com or Chrome Webstore - NOT from the webpage adblock . com)

GBI paid for Adblock Premium I paid for Adblock Premium. However, I regularly (every day or two) find that it reverts to the free version. I have to go through the process of "Upgrading" and then select I have already upgraded, put in my Paypal email address, wait for a new verification code, enter the code and then set all the options I want to use. I contacted Customer Service (ticket 263916) and was told that developers are working on a fix but no estimated fix date. Can I have a refund - no, I can't, apparently. Wasted my money
