NAB Honesty Experiment #1 Incorrect Change

[MadAboutHatter]

"trying to keep in fashion" SNAP! lol

[KiwiGirl12000]

32 people didn't give the money back.

[rissole25]

9% of us are not honest...

[thatsitize]

Melburnians are honest, not all Australians.

[MrGkonz]

Could they do a similar experiment in Port Moresby???? I'd love to see the contrast in Figures....

[Australiano75]

Yes we are honest, so stay away from us banks!

[TommyIrianto]

Well, I've been given a dollar extras or two for a change... I just assumed it was a special discount for me :P As long as I say thank you very much or thank you for everything.

[chriscopywriter]

If only NAB was honest.

[sourstrawberriesxx]

So true @HPSCSoldier

[t3nthg4te]

LMFAO @ "When did you decide you had that condition"

[adlereagle123]

America drinks the most coffee . Lets have this experiment here in the u.s. I want to see what we would do lol . Economy is bad... We'd probably keep the change lol

[TheSmootherCriminal]

i want to see the ones where they kept the extra change

[cc90071]

I park my bike in Uni, but someone cut the chain and stolen it

[nothingtosea]

ewwwwwwww.this whole thing is sickening

[dmloder]

honest. something my parents taught me to be, i personally think some people believe honesty is loosely based around ,the severity and punishment and chances/risk of being caught. or confrontations. We know when where wrong

we just don't want a confrontation,

[mcpencil]

Banks aren't honest.

[MrJoshfroggy]

iv been given extra change without noticing before. i wonder if the 9% noticed

[patjustcallmepat]

28 people aren't Australian

[cwongtech]

Try that in Chinatown.

[InTheSummerSnow]

@cwongtech u'd be surprised by the people at china town r quite honest too

[shagster1970]

A better ad would be showing how the banks are honest. But then, there would be no ad.

[galasapi2010]

not reaLy

[TheFalconSun1986]

The fact that NAB are conducting honesty experiments makes me want to LOL

[MrAndre416]

What about the 9%.

[beno7398]

If a small store gave me too much change I would give it back. But if a bank, large supermarket or petrol station gave me too much change, I would take it and never look back.

[rolopolo66]

The barista guy is so funny! :D

[ursirfan]

You can't fit in that suit Markus....See Markus reaction he almost smiled a bit

[69sico96]

woah, suprising results. I am very sceptical about it, and think it may be biased testing. But hope i am wrong, and people are genuinely that kind.

[TheWizardOfAUSTRALIA]

Wait, people trust a bank that's named after another word for steal?

[blahblahblahblha303]

You know it's a good ad when people go searching for it so they can comment on how good an ad it was. Props to you, NAB.

[GREATYELLOWSLUG]

Lol "when did you decide you had that condition?"

[DontPublicMe]

Good video .. will this be rejected as well?

[davidbedo92]

They should try this with the hungarians :D

[AussieRaver1996]

THey deserve credit cards, so you can just spend more then you recieve

[ClassyDerreaux]

You mean to tell me that 91% of middle-class latte drinkers aren't willing to steal $5 of someone else's money? I don't believe it.

[jcylqsz]

i will take the money and go to coles

[jcylqsz]

i will take the god damn money and shopping in coles

[jaykulls]

And the 9% who took the money ran banks.

[MrDokajan]

i just think that banks should be on the other side of these coffee consuming model. we are those who keep the banks running and they need us just as much but will they be as honest?

[PanzerNeko]

Am I the only Australian that would have climbed over the counter and punched him in the face?

[carbineAU]

"When did you decide you had that condition?" lol

[MrBiixx]

First bloody youtube ad that was actually enjoyable. Finally, some marketers with ingenuity and imagination.

[aRegularViewer]

Very good ad, was at Hutch's channel and saw it. Entertaining. Although untrue, the NAB looks very creative (:

[glazinq]

In Canberra they would have taken the money then insisted they were short changed!

[randomassockss]

I don't believe it

[Pretzil43]

But if a bank accidentally gave the customers too much and they kept it the customer would be arrested for fraud apparently

[whygoldandsilver]

I find it a bit rich taking a banks opinion on what honesty is. Haven't you done enough social experiments on us already - the fact we still let you create currency out thin air via loans should be enough to show you that not only will we give the change back...we'll let you create it out of nothing and then charge us interest on it. Honesty would be full disclosure of banks as to who received bailout cash from the US Federal Reserve, and how much. A pathetic industry drowning in its own vomit.

[theoriginalpm]

Set. Up.

From start to end.

All actors, all scripted.

[teratonexplosion]

@theoriginalpm Same setup as NAB, fake bank.

[survivalrod]

Pitty banks aren't that honest about where new money comes from. To this day 99% of people leave school/UNI without ever knowing the answer to that one.

Most people actually believe banks loan depositor's funds, when the reality is depositor's funds are only a fraction of the "loans".

[TruthSeekingElf]

Pity the banks weren't as honest. What an add, oh the irony! Australians are too complacent to see or care what's going on anyway.

[peppercorns207]

NAB, we'll insult you for an advertising campaign.

[luc5tar]

NOW IF BANKS COULD ONLY BE LIKE COFFEE DRINKERS!

[tmennell]

Wow. It's reassuring



[drnazar69]

I don't think they're actors...

[dzloll]

Don't believe in the results. A more accurate result would probably be 75% and 40%. Just what I think

[pencaksilatvideos]

Honestly i never would have realized either way LMFAO

[MusicAnythingBut]

I admit I wouldn't give the change back - at least I'm honest (about that)!

[PetesPictures]

I want to see this experiment conducted on the bank

[PetesPictures]

I want to see this in reverse - The public does the same tests on the bank.

[robbbitybobbity]

People are honest, banks are not. 

[cjmskv]

Nice 1 Aussies.. and now I'd like to see the "How honest is your BANK" experiment!

[PetesPictures]

I want to see this in reverse - The public does the same tests on the bank.

[PetesPictures]

I want to see this in reverse - The public does the same tests on the bank.

[Goody908]

Aussie aussie aussie oi oi oi!!! yeww australia ftw bitches

[free533]

yes i agree we may be more honest than other countries though this ALL depends on the location.

[lamokasshole]

there is no honest country!!

[Mrlncredible]

I wish I could get that song, or at least learn it's name. Help me internet.

[VierVonKreuzen]

And this is coming from a country of convicts.

[ThatBaldAtheist]

I'm American and I always give back the change if it's incorrect. I think especially if you've worked a cash register and gotten in trouble for a short till count, you gain a different perspective.

[lordkatakos]

Canada ftw <3

[andruble]

Don't do this experiment in America unless you want to lose a bunch of money, really fast.

[decadyne]

The second person (woman with dark hair) was American or Canadian.

[onyachamp]

walking in the shops the other day with my kids.saw a scrunched up 50 behind a bunch of young girls in front of a key cutting kiosk. picked it up and asked if 1 of the girls had dropped it. unfolding it revealed it was fake.left it on the kiosk.10 mins later past the same kiosk and saw the note scrunched up,back on the floor.looked at the fella behind the counter "you put that there?".he smiled and nodded.wonder how many notes he lost.interesting social experiment

[pradon1337]

Now i'll leave america



[dyslexiclogophile]

i'm moving to Australia.

[tarbogman]

see, now if you had been in my city people like me would have come back to you about 10 times that day!

lol - j.k

[KyleRichard]

I doubt many people would be surprised of the outcome, had this experiment been done in America. Sigh... good for the Aussies though :)

[candIejac]

This is all an ad for NAB, not an HONEST experiment.

[shotgunsam666]

tree fiddy

[joespeed1875]

country started with crimnals?

[thegenrl]

dont let us nasty americans over there! we'd short change the guy and put the cart on cinderblocks!

[TheEthug]

I'm Australian, and i would have taken the money and then lied about him not giving me enough change.

[ThunderWolf74]

great campaing add... kudos!

[MissLoveAndLight]

Whats the road kill around your neck.. LMAO.. I love that.

[kidovate]

In Los Angeles, 99% of the people would have kept the change, and 1% would have robbed the guy for more.

[chindhu114]

5 $ and 5000 are not the same.. people can change their mind at any time... that's human psychology... :-)

[MrRobbdog21]

i want this guy to make me a coffee, he is funny as

[mithat87]

But are the banks honest?

[smilebig1000]

well does Taxi drivers count because Melbourne Taxi drivers will rip there own mothers off, every yr without a doubt, and as for Tassy Taxi drivers, they are the kings of the road the guy didn't have change for a $50 So i asked him to come back at 3pm take me back to Hotel and he did total trip was $46 now how could you not say keep the chance.

[goldenstate85]

Im english, give me the dollar

[hasan2711]

what a great ad!

[activists]

Stick your popup add where I definately would now not bank!

[KimReddin]

Id like to see more of the obnoxious barrista character!

[onewaytoliveby]

Pity the NAB is not as honest. I sacked them years ago...

[RedRevolut1on]

I work for ANZ and I like this. :D

[BoxxyFan]

It's ironic that this ad is fake.

[F0ntayne]

"Melburnians are cranky when they need a caffeine fix, but are they honest? "

Pretty sure they could spell Melbournians...

[bleusoup]

if people believe this campaign is for real, then obviously they have never watched the truman show.

[1BustedMyth]

Hey, here's an honesty experiment!, lets see if you allow comments you don't like

My money is on you being hypocrtes

[sebastianlinn]

I work at a music shop in Queensland and I accidently gave the woman 2 $20 notes instead of just one. She obviously knew I gave her the wrong change, because she just stood there staring at it but proceeded to put it in her bag. Luckily, before she did, I said "Oh, I gave you the wrong change" and took the $20 off of her. I was not trying to perform my own experiment but was very surprised that she didn't say anything. I think Queenslanders are dishonest people. It's quite embarrassing.

[AgentMrX7]

excellant ad nab

[1BustedMyth]

WOW, yeah right NAB, keep "trying" to clean your image.

Isn't it funny how you spend all this cash on adds to tell us your honest, when the money could have gone to the littel people who are currently sueing you!

Funny how you have never given a cent that you have stolen from me back, yet you want me to think you have changed. The NAB has stolen hundreds from me, money that now goes to Advertising Agencies.

Good luck with the Class Action, You'll need it.

[nephilangel]

Pity banks aren't honest about where they get the 'money' they "lend" you... they are exploiting people's honesty to make MASSIVE profits based on dishonesty.

How Ironic.

[evgus73]

I would fail this test l as I never check the change given to me.

[willow6228]

Australians are much more honest than Americans - period

[cirrusmckinney]

Ok, here's a question for you... If Australians are that honest, Why Oh Why, OH WHY do all the major retail shops in Australia (Target, BigW etc) ask to check customers bags as they exit their stores?

[killzone474]

his a pretty good actor.

[Fuzzboy100]

haha im australian :D and i still would have given it back

[killzone474]

@Fuzzboy100 you mean 'wouldnt'? right?

[MusicAnythingBut]

@Fuzzboy100 I wouldn't, at least I'm honest! lol

[andrewestbrook]

Perhaps someone could explain why the Commonwealth bank stole $122 from my account last December. They lost all my initial paperwork complaining about it. Six months later I got it back with no apology or explanation after numerous visits to them. Aussies honest yes, Commonwealth Bank much less so.

[arodardoardo]

God, how HOT is an Australian accent!!!! :) 

[Pixel4tion]

in total there were about 5 people buying coffee lol

[linclmsilva]

I would probably not return the extra change, not because i'm not honest, but because i usually trust the other people so i just put the change back in my wallet he he he.

[forbzy1590]

Perthians are better :)

[xangel0usx]

Honest huh? Why don't you try that in a poor neighborhood in London and see how honest the people are?

[MegaNinjaFTW]

good video

[MegaNinjaFTW]

lol i was expecting 1 of them to mouth off at him cause only a true australia would

[185139]

QUESTION!

I typed in "Portal 2" in the search bar and got this

WTF!

[darkiem900]

@185139 yet more advertising :( , I did the same.... searching for something nowhere near this..... Bloody banks are clever, thats why they post multi billion $ profits like CBA did today...

[MrKeithcwk]

Try do to this in Malaysia and the results would be opposite. Well, I definitely will be the one that returns the 5$ tho :)

[goldstate1]

"Australians are AN honest lot." LOL Fail

[yuena4]

maybe melburnians are honest, but me living in sydney would of take that change and ran for it

[brittymillsyeah]

@yuena4 haha thats funny and people in sydney are general more wealthy than melbournians too, i rekon about 80% of melbourne are on the doll or at uni living off miegoreng haha :)

[akababeLily]

@yuena4 lol

[MusicAnythingBut]

@yuena4 At least you're honest! lol

[Bastian12345]

Aww this makes me happy to be a Melbournian, although I have to admit I'd probably take the 5er under the obnoxious conditions.

[DanielJM1982]

This is why Australians are better than Americans.. :P

[lildarkling248]

@DanielJM1982 Ya what does this commercial(which might be staged) have to do with you guys so called being better then americans?

[MelnDyl2010]

@DanielJM1982 I strongly agree :P

[decadyne]

@DanielJM1982

The second person *is* American. But anyway.

This says nothing about Austrialians. This says something about people who have enough money to spend on daily "gourmet" coffee. I'd like to see the same experiment with a different social class.

[alterbyme]

@DanielJM1982 Yet, your one idiotic post, proves otherwise.

[tarutamahome]

Correction! Melbournians are an honest lot. Sorry other states and territories of Australia, Melbourne is breaking up with you.

[Kevin2134]

AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!

[xhalcha]

They are all actors aren't they? Like the ad though. :-)

[brittymillsyeah]

@xhalcha definately not actors, you can tell the difference, the awquardness of the man in the furred coat haa helarious, i could never be that mean to someone even if i was paid to be! its so true though most aussies are honest. so proud NOT come from a country to have created "WWE smackdown" haha

[fattymattyd4]

@xhalcha nah, definitely not actors, i know a couple of people in the video from work :)

[cvtnfyf]

Go to Russia)

[hunter69denys]

Are you kidding me ??  The corupt Banksters who are helping to destroy the world economy are "testing us" to see if we're honest ??? PPPffffff please !!!!! PROPAGANDA

[blingblingzers]

na only Melburnians :P

[ChaldeanDavid]

0:26 that guy went to my school xD

[rohancooke]

"i try to stay in fashion"

[IJodieWhoSailsI]

I love it, but sorry, won't bank with you!

[alinstoi]

great people!

[coolman9999uk]

My gf was in a similar situation except she hid the 20 and told him he charged her too little. Then she stole his sunglass while he got more money to give her. Bless her soul....

[08ZXRider]

In LA they would tell him that he didn't give them ENOUGH change!!!

[INBOX69]

Australian girls are hot !



[firzen1231]

Faith in Humanity restored

[grogboggoth]

Interesting marketing tool. By which I mean I found the video interesting.

[1111Davo1]

lol, if hed spoken that way to me, he'd have hot coffee in his face.

[iwantgizmos]

aussies are awesome

[TheJohnlie89]

Go to see a French Musical Flashmob on youtube : To HAnd To Torch The Musical to Gare Haussmann Saint Lazare 22th june 2011 Paris .

[IIZODIIAC]

lol i would keep the money if the guy was rude but not if it was an innocent mistake

[TheGAMERgg]

nothing against Australians, but this is edited. So, the video doesn't proves that all Australians are honest, just the ones they want you to see.

[Q8Police777]

Cool :P

[f2prunewhip]

now try this at a McDonald's in America they will say they got short changed..

[GladiatorProduction2]

honesty is the best policy

[DavidMcMahon1]

I take it this company are charging interest on the cards as they believe people will pay it all back then?! :)

[Jtreglo1]

Cause only Aussies would do this ;p

[AiLiiLeahHannah]

awww... :)

[storkvana]

we are honest, that is why we tricked you into watching this ad

[Lothomiras]

Do this in the Netherlands and no one will give you your money back

[covGuk]

if this happened in america, the customer would have sued him for giving him too much change.

[ChordAbsolute]

@covGuk lol

[pethwood11]

very honest

[MadzClemmo98]

Love it - the Basil Fawlty of baristas!!!

[kristystrain]

May need to rethink my mocha coffee choice! Very funny :)

[ElectricFridge]

very good video

[nuffced]

The dude at 0.24 looks like he's homeless

[sceadugenga48]

To much change barely covers the times they over charge you!!

[lumpacharcoal]

That barista should do stand up comedy!

[eileenwalder]

Why Italian music?

[rosey0angel]

interesting experiment even if it is just to advertise a credit card

[msreadathon10]

Nice follow up on the break-up campaign.
