Edge and Chrome blocking iframe redirect from hosted button

Hi We use paypal pro on our checkout. The paypal button and card fields appear in an iframe modal layer.

I have noticed that with chrome based browsers they are now blocking iframe redirects and so clicking the paypal button will not load the paypal screen to continue.

 

The web console shows

 

Unsafe attempt to initiate navigation for frame with origin 'https://www.mydomain.co.uk' from frame with URL 'https://www.paypal.com/hostedpaymentnodeweb/wps'. The frame attempting navigation is targeting its top-level window, but is neither same-origin with its target nor has it received a user gesture. See https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5851021045661696.

 

Raising this with paypal support they said the following : 

 

I would suggest have your customers use a different browser that supports the PayPal website. As far as I am aware, there are no bugs regarding this, but I would still recommend the browser change to your customers.

Thank you for messaging with me today and for being a valued PayPal customer. You can exit by selecting the End/Close option on the messaging window.

Surely this cannot be right to ask the user to use a different browser that is not chromium based on the desktop or mobile. This is a of users.
Has anyone one else come across this here? There are lots of forums asking about this issue outside paypal but not real solution
