1. Even though that guy is cute,
the commercials are annoying.

I find the old lady very creepy in the pirate-themed restaurant ad.

"So instead of looking fly and rolling phat -- My legs are sticking to the vinyl and my posse's getting laughed at"

The tunes turn into earworms for me.

4. Generally speaking, men HATE him, women either seem to LOVE him, or...
don't have strong feelings either way.

He seems to be the kind of guy other men
want to smack up-side the head.

Don't know WHY...

8. I enjoy the rap one
Saw their ads on my TV
Thought about going but was too la-zy

I usually sing along if only to annoy everyone around me.

F-R-E-E that spells free
Credit report dot com, baby

9. Seems they're doing their job, though.
Mention "guy in the credit report ads" and everyone knows who/what/which site you're talking about.

11. Yep. I can name the company, the website.
Too often, I think of some commercial as funny, witty, impressive, whatever...but can't for the life of me tell you what it's advertising. These are well done. If you've got one of these earworms, you know the name of the site. Very wise marketing, if a bit annoying.

14. Not as much as the reverse mortgage ones.
They target us geezers (the gullible ones, anyway).

"Hey, here's a way out of the financial hole you're in. I know that when you decided to retire gasoline was $2.50 a gallon and groceries were affordable for you. Tough luck, old man. Shit happens, ya know. Let us bail you out by lending you a bunch of money on that huge equity you've built up in your home over many years. YOU wont have to pay it back. You can pass that debt on to your heirs. Hey, you'll be dead anyway, so why should you care?"

Vampires.
