    This commercial makes me want to throw my remote right through my TV without hesitation. All these so called "customers" have the most annoyingest voices i have ever heard. The funny and screwed up thing about it is,the guy with the glasses talking was the entertainer/host on the cruise i went on for my honeymoon a few years back. I almost fell off my couch when i saw him doing the commercial,the man is a total reject.

    Seriously, if you can't have a real person (For Instance, Wilford Brimley) endorse your company then I'm not purchasing your service. Lol. I'm sorry, Cartoons are allowed to endorse vitamins, not car insurance.

    However, if I could purchase Flintstone's Car Insurance, I might have to oblige. :)

    The narrator for the ATT commercials is the most annoying voice I've ever heard in my life.

    Dear ATT, Your service is crap. Your technical support is unhelpful and you think that because you have such a large customer base you can just get away with treating your customers like piss because losing 1 customer doesnt matter in the grand scheme of things.

    Heres a novel idea: Let your customers use everything that their phone was designed to do for one low flat rate.

    People make fun of me because I have the "Ghetto Phone". That's right, I have cricket but I have to make fun of my friends who get these iPhone bills in excess of $1000 because of the "Fine Print" that ATT didn't full disclose. Oh, you dont wanna pay that? That's fine, ATT will ruin your credit. Then, throw an extra $180 disconnect fee on top of that.

    Nope, overzealous add campaigns have no effect on buying habits. I know what I want to buy regardless of how companies advertising rubs me.

    I wouldn't disagree, but that wasn't my topic. Seems women figured it out first. Yay!

    Oh, and about the FreeCreditReport.Com Band: it's become fashionable to cover their songs in gigs :rolleyes:

    It's like when everyone covered the Kids In The Hall Theme (from Shadowy Men From A Shadowy Planet) or trying to make a reggae version of any given song (which has been done with EVERY given song here on the islands); every band thinks they're being clever and original, but they're all doing it.

    If you're in a band, don't.
