Question of the week: Should TV adverts promoting financial products be banned? | Money | The Observer

Question of the week: Should TV adverts promoting financial products be banned? | Money | The Observer: "What is offensive is that consumers are able to contact these advertisers directly and without comparison of other products."

That is a very good point, all too often the donkey takes the carrot without considering other options such as a whole bag of carrots available elsewhere. We have often been concerned by the quality of advertising and the inability (or unwillingness) of the Financial Services to take a look at adverts and, more importantly, what the journalists pass off as unregulated 'advice' which consumers often act upon to their detriment.
