You know what they say:-

Go Compare makes me want to hurl a brick through the TV screen (especially the one with the posh ladies college and socks).
Meerkats still make me smile when a new one comes on - I think they were one of the best adverts of recent years (although I still want to ride home from work on the Barclaycard slide instead of the M1)Little miracle born April 2012, 33 weeks gestation and a little toughie!0 -
I prefer to pick up the phone and haggle a good price.
Out of curiosity I did a search on both car and home insurance and as I expected neither came cheapest quotes came close to the deals I have negociated.0 -
Ooops ... was looking for the meerkat poll!If many little people, in many little places, do many little things,
they can change the face of the world.

Thank you for all the replies, glad it's just not me.
I think the meerkats should be shaved bald and barbacued alive whilst listening to a jamie oliver advert!
Nooooooo!The advice I give on here is based on my many years in the preservation industry. I choose to remain anonymous, I have no desire to get work from anyone. No one can give 100% accurate advice on a forum if I get it wrong you'll get a sincere apology and that's all:D
Don't like what I have to say? Call me on 0800 KMA;)0 -
I can't stand it, but, i wouldn't refuse to use the site just because of the advert. That's an incredibly stupid reason.
The site has actually got my insurance down. I went with Admiral & through Admiral it was x-amount, but through gocompare, with the same details (& STILL with Admiral) it was x-amount cheaper.0 -
In advertising there is a creative team of usually two; a visualiser (or creative director) and a copywriter. Whoever thought up this advert should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves.0
