This is my favorite ad on the tv at the moment, although it's been on so often I am starting to get a little annoyed at the tune

Cute advert, crap (scary) technology

Think Oyster, think data loss, think ID theft, think "the government knows every single transaction that you perform", think police state, think 1984 - THINK!!

Got to love the waterslide, and the mock up of it in the advertising island at Vauxhall Cross (SW8)
They have had some mental billboards there over the years, but this one brought a proper smile to my face, given how "warm" the actual ad is
