They give me the rage with their crappy songs about six foot houses and coming to “fight ya”

It can’t just be me?

I hate all things Nationwide. Load of incompetent idiots

DonnyAndVladSittingInATree · 18/01/2018 19:51

Was the pair in the photo booth nationwide too? They can’t have been a real couple?

Fucking awful. When you try that hard to be quirky and funny, it's embarrassing.

I can't decide if it's worse than the terrible poems, though.

And yes, I'm another one who hadn't realised the adverts were for Nationwide, though I knew what you were talking about the moment I saw your thread title.

I detest ALL the Nationwide ads.

The fucking poetry ones made me want to rip my own ears off.

The sisters. Grrrrrrr. Can't bear them!!!!! So annoying.

BBTHREE76 · 18/01/2018 19:55

I am totally in the minority here but I quite like them. ChrimboLimbo was brilliant!

LifeBeginsNow · 18/01/2018 19:55

A minority here but I love them! My son stops what he's doing to watch them too. I really didn't like the poetry ads but I'm not a fan of poetry anyway.

brizzledrizzle · 18/01/2018 19:59

Christ, yes. I was at the gym and everybody was saying how annoying they are. Thank goodness we never see adverts at home.

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 18/01/2018 20:05

Aww, we all loved Chrimbo Limbo. Reminded us of ‘Everybody's good at cooking something (and I’m good at cooking crumble)’. Nothing they do will ever make me open an account with Nationwide though.....

Doubledeckers · 18/01/2018 20:09

I like them they make me laugh.

@Glumglowworm

We're not all bad promise!

I had forgotten about this! Off to YouTube Grin

StellaHeyStella · 18/01/2018 21:26

Chrimbo limbo was brilliant, loved it

user1478939671 · 20/01/2018 14:29

I don't mind them runs out ducking.

IHeartKingThistle · 20/01/2018 14:33

I like them. Their 2016 song was brilliant.

Wiseflower · 21/01/2018 20:39

I have a sister and love it! At first, I thought 'wot the fk' and then I loved it. Two sisters like chalk and cheese - just like me and my sister. Love it!

Jcurtains · 25/01/2018 10:11

They get on my tits!

Mamadothehump · 25/01/2018 10:24

Yes!!!! I actually shouted at them to fuck the fuck off last night!!!!

Kitty63 · 27/07/2018 19:44

I would like to get in touch with self employed cleaners

Ohmylord59789234 · 27/07/2018 19:50

I really can’t stand them, but the poem ones are even worse, I’m a nationwide customer and I’ve seriously considered leaving them because of their loathsome adverts, I have to mute the tv all their ads give me rage!

KittyHawke80 · 27/07/2018 20:33

I loathe slam poetry, but quite liked the ‘Mr Cooper does’ one. And the one about understanding why her gran didn’t want to use a branded bag in a different shop. The sisters have been better than they are in these.

Yogagirl123 · 27/07/2018 20:35

I am not a fan either, awful adverts.

Kitty63 · 27/07/2018 20:38

There condescending smug and irritating

IHeartKingThistle · 27/07/2018 23:06

Zombie from January, someone's spammed it.

Also, leave those girls alone, they seem lovely. Said this in January too.
