MEDIAWATCH: Ummmm – Is One NZ offering their staff members up for romantic journeys of self discovery???

Look, I still don’t understand why the Christ Vodaphone changed their name to sound like TVNZ so what they hell do I know, but there’s something very weird about their current never ending Lord of the Rings saga adverts with some kid trying to find his birth parents.

Are One NZ offering their staff members up for romantic journeys of self discovery???

Really?

Why is the ONE NZ staff member traipsing all over the country for this kid? Have you actually ever tried to get any service from them when you go in store?

It’s threadbare at the best of times, so why is she bending over backwards to help him find his Mum and Dad?

How about you do less DNA hunting and more making my phone bill cheaper?

Is there something going on between the two of them? Why are ONE NZ insinuating a romantic relationship when you go in to pay your phone bill?

If I don’t get a date with a ONE NZ staff member, do I get a refund?

I still have no idea what this advert series is about, it just feels like a bloated campaign to justify enormous spending to keep the Wellington film and TV industry going for a year.

I’m glad I’m with 2 Degrees.
