Car Loan Ad Causes Stir

October 26, 2010 · Mustapha Hamoui

Complaint by an angry Lebanese man to a Bank:

[your] ad is based on a social prejudicial assumption. The bank is directly and shamelessly adopting a social vice and a tremendous mistake in the way people are currently considering things. […] Your ad is incorrect, disrespectful and is a clear sign of the bank’s immoral approach towards its customers.

For background and to see the offending ad check Rami’s blog. I personally think the matter was overblown, but go ahead and judge for yourself.
