Of course, if you read the fine print you'll find out that you have to join their service to get your "free" credit report!

I also find the Geico commercials more annoying. I would like to feed that freaking lizard to my cat.

I don’t mind the FreeCreditReport commercials, but the Geico ones kill me. I never thought they were funny and they just get more and more annoying.

Both I find very irritating. The commercial that I can't stand right now is the "Saved by Zero" commercial from Toyota. Never liked the song, and it seems to be on 250,000 times a day.

I dont like either one, but i do like the Sony HD Tv one with Payton and the chicken.

Amen brother, if I even tolerated that song before, it's a station-changer now!

I'm sure there are others in the advertising industry that would agree with me, the annoying commercials are considered successful because they get people talking about the commercials and you can't mention the commercials without mentioning the name of the company being advertised. That creates brand name recognition. That sells their products. You may not say, "Hey, I'm going to buy Geico because you like the lizard", but if you start looking for new auto insurance you will check Geico because the name is stuck in your head.
