Banner Ads on stock ads - really Samsung??

[mreesharris]

Banner ads on apps that are providing core functionality, (Health, Pay etc) have no place on a £1300 handset. 

They are intrusive, obnoxious and ruin the user experience.

Open Samsung Pay or health on a S21 Ultra, hey presto, an advert for an S21 Ultra. 

Shame on you Samsung. 

Great phone but think I will return mine  and the Watch 3 for a refund. I have zero interest in paying for a premium eco-system that serves me up ads. 

At least give us the option to disable the banner ads.

totally agree hate the ads in apps not right on such expensive phones we should have choice to disable.

Agreed. I used Samsung pay for one day and became so annoyed I installed Google Pay and have used that since. Sorry Samsung, there's a time and place for that sort of practice, and as I'm trying to complete a transaction isn't one of them.
