I think we’re agreeing that it’s a vast improvement on the woeful “Card of Vanquis” pish it has replaced. In a similar way to when the AA replaced that lip syncing baby with the dog and fan, it stands as evidence that redemption is possible for even the worst of offenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguel Sanchez Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 The Omaze Million Pound House Draw is clearly a money laundering scam of some sort, yes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Can't even remember the name of the company I was so disgusted, that advert where the person says they can accept card payments and every c**t goes "ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 The adverts with a word search you get during the day where you can win about £30k the newest one has the clue, Popular TV Crime Series and the answer is clearly Midsummer Murders as it takes up a whole line. I know these are clearly easy to make people spend a fiver phoning in but very annoying. Add to that anything by JML 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They absolutely must be although they are a massive Company in the USA operating under a charitable status. They operate with a profit margin of 16-18% after prize purchasing which is nice work if you can get it given their operating costs excluding advertising will be negligible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 A certain mayonnaise advert. Shows various folk looking glum with nothing in the fridge other than a jar of mayo and they somehow end up cooking all sorts of wonderful colourful dishes. Where did that chicken and those peppers come from? The garden? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latest one, if I heard right, is about 100 yards from a cliff edge in Dover, so it's not lasting long either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonD Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 The one that says "The UK has lost 97% of its wildflower meadows." Meaningless without a timescale. Lost the meadows since when? The Ice Age? World War Two? Thursday afternoon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 That gambling advert where Peter Crouch stands up in front of the big outdoor screen showing the football to say "come on!!!" to the crowd. In reality, all you'd hear would be various variations of "get out of the way ya f***ing dick" as he gets hit with liquid-bearing projectiles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
