Ads in Inbox

Today ads started showing up at the top of my Outlook.com Inbox. They look like emails but I can't delete or block them. In the past ads did show up on the right had side and I could live with that but I don't want them at the top of my Inbox.

I want important emails at the top of my inbox not ads. And don't tell me that this is because I have a free account. My google email account is free and it puts all ads where they belong under a Promotions tab where I can ignore them.

How do I correct this?

    Microsoft is a multi-billion dollar company but feels the need to shove adverts down users throats. What an evil, greedy, avaricious tactic to generate even more money. Moving away from Outlook/hotmail after 20 years. Goodbye

    EVERYONE INSTALL ADBLOCK AS AN EXTENSION ON YOUR INTERNET BROWSER.

    The ad appears for a few seconds, and then disappears.

    Woah, so I've put up with this deeply irritating practice for a while, with an ad per day appearing at the top of my Inbox which I just delete. I think the practice of putting the delete icon in a different place to the rest of emails is really sneaky.

    Today the things have been reappearing every couple of hours. Now THAT really grinds my gears.

    STOP THIS Microsoft
