N. S. & I. Can't stop cookies banner popping up

Looking to check out and open new 6.2% fixed account. Our savings are largely in wife's name with her extra tax-free allowance, but she leaves the operation to me. Whatever I try and do on the site I get hit with this cookies banner. Whether I edit to accept some, reject all or accept all, I keep being brought back to this annoying banner - it was annoying to start with; now it's well beyond that.
It doesn't seem to matter which area I go to; I can click the premium bond checker, go to savings options, before I can see or do anything meaningful I'm stopped by this banner, which pops up.
I've "searched" the forum, as I can't be alone but nothing shows up. Help!

The only way I can use NS&I (apart from the bond checker site) is to use a browser with no security. Even trying to remove the site security using my usual browser does not work. But I don't get a cookies banner. thankfully.

This is driving me nuts as well! Every new page brings a cookie pop-up and I can't find a way of stopping it! I generally use Firefox, must try some different browsers!

Thanks everyone. With perseverence I managed to get to the right page in between pop-ups. I do have the free Adblock but haven't had the typical " ...we see you're using an ad-blocker." message on this site. I've found N. S. & I. a nightmare for years in lots of ways as regards using online services. No way would I have an account which required any frequent logging-in and/or dialogue . They wouldn't get away with their user-unfriendly set-up if they were a private institution.2

check if it happens with eg Chrome and Edge0

I've just signed up using Firefox, and had no problem, just the one cookie page as usual

This happens to me on multiple sites not just NS&I and using several browsers. It's basically lazy coding coupled with the fact that they want you to get so cheesed off you end up accept these cookies anyway.

Not accepting cookies when logging into the NS&I site is a sure way to get your device count maxed and locked out.2
