Free credit report (dot) com commercials

[piffffalici0us]

OMG I AM SICK OF THIS SHIT
I hate these no talent idiots constantly singing about this shit.
If i need to check my credit report, i will not use this service just because of these losers singing there bullshit songs.
They are all ugly as fuck, cant sing for shit and they play the commercial so many times it makes me want to never watch TV again.
So these stupid commericals kill my high every time
and i wanted to share how annoyed i am with this bullshit nonsence with my fellow icers.
Thanks for hearing me out.

F R E E that spells free,Credit report dot.com B A B E E E E.....

Then in my mind.....a car bomb detonates and kills all the idiots in the commercial

 

[Ganico]

Did you try out for this commercial and lose the part to that guy or something like that?

You are pretty vehemently outspoken about this inane commercial. It's just a commercial, chill out. Goddamn

 

[piffffalici0us]

^grumpy old stoner with no tv
im just kiddin, hey...u gonna tell me u never seen a stupid commercial so many times it drives u crazy?
lol that would b funny if they blew up at the end of the song, even funnier if it was in the middle while they were singing.

 

[HuffAndPuff]

<Shoulda goooooooooone to freeeee credit..... Report dot com...... I woulda seen this coming at me....... like an atom bomb!>

Dudes, I dunno what you guys are talking about. That song is fucking SUH-WEET!!!! Their last commercial was the tits, too. It had that guy saying... "I'mmmmmmmmm thiiiiiiiinkingggggg of a nummmberrrr"

I keed, I keed. They suck.

I apologize to our UK brethren who cannot relate. Perhaps you guys will remember an insurance commercial featuring Deckland, "Deckland's Mum", and a fall from a ladder? Classic. I think Deckland lost an eye, if memory serves.

UK/Euro commercials are way better than what we got going over here. I do not remember the last time I saw titty-balls in an 'advert', as you so quaintly refer to them.

Did anyone catch this campaign?

Subliminal? Or just liminal?

LOL,I thought the commecial's were a brilliant piece of marketing!I shoulda known my credit was wack now I'm driving off the lot in a used sub-compact!!!
On a side note,I went there last year and did the "free" thing,couple months later I notice a revolving charge on my account,seems the bastards figured out a new angle on screwin peep's.If you dont unsign,you agree to the charge!!
Now,my legs are sticking to the vinyl and my posse's gettin laughed at!!

 

[bagseed77]

1 -800 safe auto has the catchiest song to me ,

 

[cooked cook]

how about their older ad?

"I'm thiiiinking of a number....between 410 and 430.....know what it is? Your credit score...blah blah blah"

What about the fact that in the advertising business, they don't care if you like it or not, all that matters is if it gets your attention and drives people to talk about the product being sold.
Hate to say it guys, but all of you talking about how much you don't like it, you are just supporting them more. Whatever ad agency came up with that catchy jingle, has YOU talking about it........THEY SUCCEDED and you're doing nothing more then supporting them by talking about it. LOL Keep bitching, they will just continue that same format so that you spread the word for them more and more and more. Really, it's the basics in business, publicity is publicity, good or bad, you all remember the website that wass advertised.

As for the funniest commericial currently out there. I've only seen it on Spike TV, the fat tow truck driver with the jumper cables hooked up to his nipples dancing to Salt and Pepper to jump start the car after drinking an AMP. It had me rolling but, I'm sure it will be hated by others.

Those credit report . com commercials are obviously successful, since you all know the words by heart and you're talking about it here. That's the sign of a good advertising campaign, even if it is annoying, lol.

 

[tngreen]

yall are dumb, those commercials are genius! even if they do get annoying.

 

[tasteez]

have you ever been to the website? it isnt even a free credit report, you have to pay for it

talk about the biggest form of false advertising ever

 

[Pops]

Perhaps I am just old and have no taste in music, but I rather like the commercials. Much better than Head ON!

I'm with you brother, I was expecting some flaming for my comments but instead, it seems people understood where I was coming from. I've cought myself walking around the house singing the song, it's goofy fun and catchy. As for the company itself..... I've never been to the website, no need to, EVERYONE in the US, by law, is entiled to one free credit report from each of the three credit companies DIRECTLY per year.

Another helpfull hint, if you have a collection or charge off on your report, or you just have crappy credit, the companies don't keep the info, you are allowed to dispute ANYTHING except leins, judgments or bankruptcies. If you live in the US, understand how American business works, these companies don't pay a staff of people to verify disputes, there's no cash return potential so it's not smart business. If you had a credit card that you left unpaid and it was sent to a collection agency, after a year, the credit card company dumps the info from thier server, it costs them money to keep it and server space. When you dispute it, they won't verify it. Experian, Trans Union and Equifax contact them and they have 30 days to verify, if not, by law, the company has to remove the item. You will then be sent a "newly" updated report. If you had a collection that you did pay, guess what? they don't report that to the Credit Agencies either, so they still show as unpaid. Once again, American business at it's finest, you paid a collection agancy NOT the creditor, they are not liable to report anything to the Credit Companies and because the origional credit doesn't llike you for not paying the bill, they certainly are not going to follow up on this for you either!

I know all of this because I've done it and it's directly tied into my occupation. I see this done daily and I made my own scores jump up 50 points in less then a month simply by clearing off the "dead wood". In a lot of cases you will find all kinds of stupid items on your report, un-paid co-pays from Dr offices and dentists are one of the biggest items that drops credit scores. Secondly to cell phone companies. they all report these items for tax write offs but they get bought and sold from one collection agency to another and the disputes can't be verified within the 30 days the Credit Companies are legally bound to.

DO NOT PAY A COMPANY TO DO THIS FOR YOU. If you have a general question PM me, I'll point you in the right direction.

Damn......I hate being out of weed and clicking into "business" mode..... but the info I gave you can save you THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS in interest long term. Higher scores get lower interest rates, lower rates= lower payments. I've seen a 200K fixed rate mortgage and a 300K fixed rate mortgage have the same payment, the only differce was the credit score. Same goes for car loans, seen people paying $500 a month for a Chevy Caviler, Seen the $500 going towards a Mercedes. Same note lenght, just different interest rates based on credit scores.

"well that would not make any sense to me"
"why not ?"
"well because therapists are....."
"are what, smart?

peace-bear ​

We're sick man, they just haven't come up with the name for it yet but I'm guessing you perscribe yourself the same thing I do.....bong hits

 

[Stoner4Life]

I like the ad campaign

 

[Murphy]

I had to find it and post the link up here. This took balls! Someone had to present this idea to a bunch of business execs and get them to agree to it. I think it's great!

AMP Energy Drink, off subject for the thread but this thread took a beating anyway.

STILL DONT HAVE NETFLIX?

They can go eat shit as well. There should be laws for over advertising. Such bullshit.


What about all the new pills our government is slinging online. Grow a second arm on your neck 3 years from now.

 

[VictoryGardener]

man o man I remember seeing the original ads in commercial creaks during Price is Right back in the mid- late 90's

I actually chuckled at the new ones... they are a helluva lot better than the first ones



Anybody remember

"LOST ANOTHA LOAN TO DITECH!!!!!!!"

Or maybe those only aired in North Carolina.

I love seeing old commercials... they always take me back a few years
