    Doesnt appear to be an email address of ofcom :( only telephone and snail mail.

    Not content with having one advert in a commercial break it has to be on twice. :(

    I like the way ASA says to contact the Duty Office at ITV as I already did that and they told me to complain to ASA ... talk about pass the buck :mad:

    I just complained to ITV on the phone. They are aware of people complaining about the frequency of the adverts and ASA stand on this. They told me Jamster have booked an intensive advertising campaign on ITV for the next few days.

    I agree its annonying and it is advertised far too much. The reason it is now censored is becuse of this Uncensored Frog. When they first showed the adverts last year they had a lot of compliants about it being shown as it was. As they were showing it before the watershed. So they have now censored it with a black box. Why not just take the damn advert off :rolleyes: :mad: !

    Just glad i don't listen to the radio these days then <phew!>

    Would it be worth emailing popular radio stations warning them they'll lose listeners if they play it ;)
