I don't mean like scams or anything like that. I mean what's the ad that has done the worst job as an advertisement? Instead of making you want to buy the product you wanted to avoid it.

There was an ad recently on UK TV for some shitty food delivery company,and had a constant loud doorbell sound.

I emailed the TV channel and said myself and everyone I know have stopped watching their channel because the advert was so obnoxiously irritating.

They emailed back a month later and said they'd asked the advertiser to redo the advert due to multiple complaints

We can make a difference if we make an effort!
