  You are incorrect.

  They are displaying ads in accordance with the agreement you signed when you signed up for WordPress. It’s covered in the Terms of Service. You only see them when you’re not signed in which is why they’re showing on the mobile version.

  WP.com provides the No Ads upgrade if you don’t want ads on your account. Otherwise, you can purchase web hosting and move from WordPress.com.

  Thank you. Where do I find the upgrade to remove these ads? I am getting complaints from members of our organization about these ads.

  Thank you for your help. I had no choice but to spend the $30.

  If it stops people moaning at you, I’m sure it’ll be worth it in the long run.

  It’s far cheaper than independent hosting.

  And @raincoaster always recommends the No-Ads upgrade for professional and groups blogs – more class –
