Santander

[grumpy01]

These adverts are becoming tedious.Santander must be struggling for business.

[Tuvok]

But we're all supposed to worship Ant and Dec!

[Theland]

Because we have all been dumbed down to a level where A & D appear sensible.

[Tuvok]

Sensible - them! Not on your Nellie!

[Theland]

Tuv - Give it time, your views may change :-)

[Tuvok]

And pigs might fly!

isnt that the bank that knowingly sent scam proceeds on to crooks abroad.

[gingejbee]

Please explain why they are "struggling for business".
Aldi advertises, Lidl advertises, Tesco advertises etc.etc.
I think that none of them is struggling for business.

That was HSBC:

[grumpy01]

If they have to use those two to grab people’s attention gingejbee then they must be struggling.

[Mamyalynne]

Rarely watch adverts and never get het up about them at all.

[ummmm]

Those two? Those very popular and expensive two?

I bank with Santander, and have been very happy with their service.

However the Ant and Dec adverts are so annoying I feel like switching banks in protest.

How any advertising agency could convince someone to pay for that defeats me.

[Theland]

Sumwun shud do sumfin.

I also bank with Santander and have never had any problems, but I, too, cannot stand these adverts and it annoys me when I think about the amount of money they must have been paid.

I remember reading a long time ago that back when Alan Davies did those adverts for Abbey National (remember them? taken over by Santander) that with all the repeat fees etc he made over £1m. So the mind boggles about Ant and Dec's fee.

[Georgiesmum]

I dont see much of the adverts because I usually record programmes I want to see and then fast forward the adverts,

[Ken4155]

Altogether now, "Let's get ready to grumble!"

[Bazile]

Not to mention the ones for Amazon

I'm not interested in your personal lives or how you are a good team leader etc etc

[Peter Pedant]

very keen to charge punters to keep their money
yes I have an account
no I dont thing it is that good a deal

[Old_Geezer]

Maybe they should be concentrating on attracting the custom of expats living in the EU instead.
