FACTS: President and CEO, Glen F. Post III, was compensated in 2010 over $14 MILLION DOLLARS while his work at home employees (after two years of work) are still without ONE raise, making only $10/hr, and must buy and maintain their own computer, $100 headset, and high speed internet!! They also do not receive paid vacations or sick time. EVER
I wonder if his kids would work for $10 to hear people scream at them all day?? Corporate greed will be the end of America. PASS THIS ON PLEASE!!
Century Link advertises falsely, their speed is only half the speed, they crank it down after about a week or two, and will tell u they dont charge for install outside the home if its their lines, bs..... they charged me 69 dollars first bill.... and then when i called back the customer service girl said, " Oh think of it like a Activation fee for a cell phone...
NOW, i say think of it as a illegal misrepresentation to lie to the people and no honor your advertising or internet speeds either
I have a special needs son and he just loves this commercial. He starts laughing and dancing around when he watches it. Its so cute. I hope they make another commercial that he likes.
The slinkies are being handed out to employees. If you're desperate for one, I suggest making friends with an employee lol - and yes, it says CenturyLink on it with the circle of wedges logo in white.
Oh. Qwest's phone service will now be provided by CenturyLink. The retro toys in this ad make me think of playing "telephone" with two tin cans tied together by string. Thank goodness I'm not a Qwest customer for phone or internet so I won't be a victim of this latest corporate takeover.
BTW. I. hate. this. commercial. And they NEVER stop showing it. AAACKK!!
Notice the girl sits down on the third step from the top when she lets go of the slinky, by the time the slinky reaches the bottom she is sitting on the fourth step. How did that happen?
This commercial is a PERFECT example of the phrase 'familiarity breeds contempt". It's a cute little song, but them apprently having enough money for it to be played every FIFTEEN MINUTES, ALL DAY AND NIGHT LONG makes me pretty much hate it. And it's because of this and that dorky "This is a Qwest Internet Five Year Price Freeze" (which played every TEN minutes), I will never ever ever get Qwest (or "CenturyLink" service. Apparently I WON'T buy something if I'm borbarded by ads for it...
i. fucking. hate. this. COMMERCIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! all it takes is one time and that damn song is stuck in my head for good. damn youse qwest/centurylink!
Molly, our pug hates this commercial. She barks and jumps at the tv everytime she hears it. She only needs to hear the song and she spazs out. I just played in on my computer and she went nuts.
OMG!!! Please stop playing this commercial!! Who wrote this song-I hear it every 5 minutes and it drives me crazy-it is awful!! I would never use Century Link because of it. The visual is clever-it is the singing and pluggy piano following the simpy singing is what I can't stand!
BUT WAIT !! u know what annoys me here.. is that guy of Doggie howser md.. neil patruck soemthing .. yes that guy really REALLY ANNOYS mee with his ANNOYING way he does with his "xfinity " commerical there YEPP ANNNOOOOOYYYS me get that guy of of kktv at 6pm . i want wheel of fortune ..!! that really fucks me off YEPP> this is nothing here..great tv commericlal sorry ..
Running it every 10 minutes isn't going to make me want to "run out and sign up for this service" (hard to believe - har har - but true...) "Qwest" offered a terrible service, and I can only imagine that "Centurylink" will be even worse...
whose is this singing there ?? it sounds like the same woman on the "ups commerical" logistics ... cool song here in colorado lot better than comcast xfinity there. keep it up century !!
IMO, one of the dumbest ad campaigns ever. Doesn't a 60 year old simplistic child's toy just SCREAM "state-of-the-art communications services provider" to you? Uh, no.
