Which ones really get up your nose? Maybe make you switch channels? Put you off having any dealings with the company they're promoting?

Feel free to add to the list - I may even edit the poll to include suggestions!
 
Go compare without a doubt and that injury lawyers for you where the bloke says "We are real lawyers", no your not mate, your some dodgy old copper from the bill..

Top 5?

You gotta be kidding, number one top spot for that annoying pratt........:lol:
 
we buy cars and go compare neck and neck :bang:
 
Damn! Forgot to add the ambulance chaser type lawyer ones and the we'll rip you off for your gold if you're really desperate.

How do I edit the poll to add them?
 
we buy any car, definitely.
 
Go compare and we buy any car will have me changing channels they are so annoying.

That nobcheeze selling windows is irritating, but you just pity the fools who actually choose to buy those windows based on that advert.
 
Don't forget the hardship cases as well, This is Isha, shes only 5 and walks 40 miles everyday to get the water because her goverment spent 130 million on their space programme last year instead of basic services.
 
Confuseddotcomwebsiaaarrrgghhh! Along with the others mentioned, except the meerkats.
 
go compare.

I mute or switch over when it omes on, and my annoying nieces sing it at me cos they are horrible children. I will never ever use that site ue to the advert. Makes me rant like a sad old man everytime it comes on.

Those "In debt? Spent more money than you earn? Utter qwit at finances and budgets? Maxed out on all other credit options?...Then borrow more off us......:bang:"
 
Go Compare....does my head in..
 
We Buy any Car definitely....not only for the advert but also the fact they're a carp company...they'll buy your car, but definitely not for what it's worth.

I've also hated any Halifax advert made since 2000 when they put that muppet Howard in the adverts. And the current ones with the "Halifax Radio station" drive me potty.
 
Go Compare and compare the market. Its a tought choice but Go Compare is probably the worst.
 
For me its the 'Juan Sheet' advert as little miss wisemen (3) finds it hilarious running round shouting 'one sheet'.......
 
i cant choose between go compare and webuyanycar.com

i also detest the brighthouse adverts because they are a truely dispicable company aimed at raking massive amounts of interest out of people who cant borrow money normally
 
DFS. surely that wants a sofa everyone has one by now?
 
Go Compare first, then We Buy Any Car - equally annoying but not on as often IMO

then the list is endless. what about CILIT BANG!!! you know the one where the guy clearly cant speak and has to SHOUT at us!

Vanish adverts that put in a grey top and pull out a white one (clearly straight out of a packet)

L'oreal - Cheryl cole! How can hair products be shown to work when they inform you she's wearing extensions!!!! but I don't like her anyway :lol:


They all jump to mind, clearly there will be others too :)
 
Yeah, I ticked the wrong box! Then again, if I allowed multiple votes, I rckon most people would have ticked 'em all!

How do I edit the poll?
 
the simpering wimps


118-118
 
Annoying as they may be it proves they have worked in that you all remember the names of the companies/websites....and sadly the more they realise annoying = rememberable the more there will be.
 
Counterproductive when you're remembering the company name just so you can avoid buying their product or using their services though.

I thought the same thing too. :D

Not to mention the annoying McDonald's signiture whistle tune, even though the adverts themselves aren't that bad. But the highly compressed sounding tune goes "right through me". Aaaaargh!

And why does it have that sudden burst of speeded up video in the middle of that advert, as if someone accidently pressed the fast-forward button for a second? It just grates me! It did that in an earlier advert of their's.
 
The Aviva adverts with Paul Whitehouse drive me mad now. Shame because I used to like him.

I also hate those companies offering quick cash that show typical APR of over 2000% in the small print.

We buy any car is definitely the worst. Go compare close 2nd and now the money supermarket advert with omid djalili really ****** me off. I never found him particularly funny but now I'd go out of my way to avoid anything to do with him.
 
I don't watch any ads. All my tv programmes are recorded [Tivo] and 7 or 8 quick presses of a button skips right through them in 30 second stages.

However, from having to sit through some on the odd occasion over the years whilst visiting, the sheer saturation of DFS ads, usually at the Christmas periods, have convinced me to never set foot inside one of their stores, ever.
 
Autoglass on the radio with Craig form Birmingham too, what a tw at.
 
I've never recovered from the Anchor advert where the cows chase lawn mowers into a stream. It's a few years ago now and I still won't buy anything by anchor.

I like compare the meerkat.
 
:annoyed: Anything with that tart Cheryl Cole gets right up my alamentry canal let alone my nose....I really cant stand her - I'd rather pull out my finger & toe nails than have to watch/listen to her..... Even her crap records on the radio makes me change stations.... :bang:
 
Those Halifax radio station ads drive me up the wall. What monkey comissioned that rubbish?:razz:
 
isa... isa ? :lol: Im not normally violent, but one of those Halifax ads makes me want to punch the woman in it - the one with a keyboard or something.


We used to laugh at the Cheryl Cole ads, "dull, lifeless, limp?" Yes Cheryl, nice of you to review your own album.

We Buy Any Car... rubbish ad for a rubbish company, and their little ads on Dave when any motoring programme is on irritate me.

Any Cash for Gold type ads, I think the one with Dale Winton is really hit the bottom of the barrel - "ooh Dale, cash my gold"
