RBS and Natwest TV ads banned

Published on

Two TV ads for Natwest and The Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), have been banned by the advertising watchdog.

The adverts were shown in June 2011.

The first ad, for Natwest, showed scenes in which Natwest employees were featured in various locations talking about Natwest’s achievements over the past year and their aims for the future. In one scene two women in Natwest uniforms were shown outside a Natwest bank on a deserted coastal road. One of the women said, “&hellip continue to provide banking services wherever we’re the last bank in town.””
