Hi all-
This may be seen as a bit of a rant, and lets face it...it is, but I’m getting sick of seeing the ocean finance advert on my TV.:mad:
I recall this huge thing a while ago on the BBC about secured lenders encoring people to "splash" out and use secured lending irresponsibly. This type of advert was attacked vigorously and, thankfully, it appeared to stop. :j
Now Ocean have launched this lovely advert with some poor sod taking 100 years to mow his Lawn with a 1000 year old mower before going on to say how you can improve your life with a loan...then hey presto he gets a secured loan and buys......A TRACTOR to mow his 8ft garden! :rotfl: :rotfl:
The advert actually does get my back up something rotten...and I cant help but think that the reason the family need a secured loan as they buy stupid things!!! :mad: :mad: :mad:
I just hope people don’t go for this rubbish.:wall: :wall:
