tweet issue - Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!

Hi,
I wonder if anyone can help? For the past three days when I tweet from a rafflecopter and click on the 'view it now', I get taken to a blank page on twitter saying 'Sorry, that page doesn’t exist!' whereas I always used to be taken to my tweet. If I look on my Twitter feed, I see my tweet so can copy and paste it from there but it is a takes longer to do this! I use Chrome (currently showing as version 55.0.2883.87 m) and haven't changed any settings and I also don't follow Rafflecopter on Twitter, which I know causes problems anyway.

Has this happened to anyone else? Could it be a chrome or twitter issue?

Thank you

I use the competition forum on this site and I asked in there but no one replied, apart from one person who has the same issue but no solution.

    I'm using Chrome and this doesn't happen for me. I doubt this will fix the issue, but have you considered clearing your browser cache?

    I'd also give it a try in another browser if I were you. Not ideal, but worth trying at least.

    Thank you for your advice. Yes, I cleared my cache and cookies last night but it didn't help. I really don't want to change to another browser as I like Chrome and have lots of bookmarks set up. I just cannot understand why the problem started 3 days ago when I haven't changed anything?

    So the link you are getting is from rafflecopter? If it is I dont think it matters which browser you use as they are giving you the wrong link. The issue seems to be with rafflecopter. You could try pasting the link into another browser but Im guessing it wont work. I would take it up with rafflecopter.

    Thank you - I have emailed but won't hold my breadth for a reply! I have emailed the previously and they never answered! I will update if they do get back to me with a solution to help others if they have a similar problem :)

    I had this problem a few months ago. I had somehow enabled linkis on Twitter. When I clicked tweet from the rafflecopter and then tried to view the tweet it wouldn't take me to the tweet either. When I pressed tweet it changed the competition link in the tweet to the Linkis link and as the tweet changed so had the tweet link. As soon as I stopped the linkis on Twitter it started working again.

    I opened one of the linkis links from my tweets. Clicked on the Linkis logo to go to the Linkis website, logged in and turned autobranding off in the settings. I think! I hope that helps.
