I think it is there to appeal to youngsters. However I notice they are advertising other cute animals too :doh:

I do think it is catchy but it would have to be a freebie for me I am afraid for me to consider it - lol.

But I agree it does seem to be a bit over hyped, but the public will vote, with their phones of course.

:rolleyes:

What really concerns me is that there is obvious censorship in the advert, in that a black rectangle tries to disguise the fact the frog is male!

Normally not too bothered by this sort of thing, but this advertisment is aimed a the youngsters, just makes me query the brain of the person that designed the advertisment.

Until Traf posted the video link on another thread I hadn't seen or heard the ad, but just this morning I've heard it around half a dozen times, and on ITV, not one of the lesser channels that usually promote this type of thing ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

While I'm typing there's yet another ring tone ad on featuring a Teddy singing Brown Girl in the Ring :rolleyes:

Wonderful AxelF crazy frog, yes its annoying as hell. On freeview on the music channels its on sometoimes twice on same commercial break, to attract no doubt the young. Roll on Jamster, not.

I can understand it being on music channels, and that's often where these types of adverts end up, but it's on almost every ad break, often twice, on ITV at prime time viewing at the moment!!!!

I just wish I had thought of it first. And now I would be rolling in money :rotfl:

Didn't the first person who started out selling ring tones worth about 10 million.

Not fair why do I never think of things like that.

Ok, I've had enough!!!! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:


Who do I complain to at ITV to get that blasted advert removed GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

Don't they realise they're gonna lose viewers and potential customers by playing it a million times a day!!!! Pure Overkill :mad:


I've switched over to BBC now :mad:



Edit: I've found this email address dutyoffice@itv.com on the ITV webpage and have duly complained!!!! Maybe everyone else should drop them a line too

On the plus side, after the 7th or 8th time today of seeing that advert it gave me the much needed incentive to turn the tv off and hoover the fleas from the carpets. The down side is the blinking tune was going through my head the whole time :mad:
