I know what you mean. The radio advert is the worst, just not funny at all. I think they want to emulate the successful branding of the Compare the Meerkat but just fail.

Do they fail though? You are talking about them and the company name so in my eyes they have done their job. So many adverts people dont remember the product just the advert whereas you remember both for them so they have worked.

I have to mute the TV when the ads come on.

Does who ever advertises after them get a discount to account for the number of people who switch over.

IMO they do fail, as I would not type go compare into my browser, or click on the link on a Google search.

Other comparison site are available.

Exactly. In fact, the only comparison site that sticks in my mind is moneysupermarket.com

The rest don't even come into my head and I once tried CompareTheMarket which was total crap.

+1 I remember the Go Compare name every time I need to compare something online and then also remember the ad is annoying and st and use another site.

Sonic Branding- use of sounds or songs to remind you of certain brands- can be very effective is done correctly and unobtrusively i.e Intel Chips.

I flatly refuse to use Go Compare solely because of that advert.
