I've not got suggested sites ticket but adverts keep appearing in my speed dial like Amazon which I don't use due to blatant in the face intrusions like this, can this be stopped or do we need to change browsers?

@colej2k Promoted sites perhaps? Or do you use News in start page?

For some reason, promoted sites is listed under Security and privacy in Settings, while news in start page is where you'd expect it (Settings >Advanced > Browser, Start page). Disable both. The first one won't remove promoted sites that are already there, but it will stop you from getting new ones.

I had this problem and put it in my review on Google Play and Opera replied admitting the adverts are forced on, its how they make money apparently so I uninstalled as well
