Westpac asks more questions with latest ‘Old Flatties’ spot via DDB Group New Zealand

Two weeks ago Westpac, via DDB New Zealand, encouraged NZ to ‘Start Asking’ the big questions about money.
Hot on the heels of this, they’re now starting to help with some of the answers via some inhouse YouTube videos featuring staff responding. One of the most commonly asked questions through their Facebook App has actually been ‘what do I need for a house of my own?’ which plays into the next stage of the wider campaign.
There’s other ‘big questions’ to be answered when you’re looking to buy a house like who drank Neville’s milk? Whose washing is in the machine? Why won’t anyone listen to me? And if you’re asking questions like these then you should ask Westpac, cause they can help you avoid a lifetime flatting.

Is an insight still an insight if it’s really obvious?
I reckon this one is.
Lovely spot, well written and shot.
great one liners..funny
I like this…very funny and some choice casting…
Funny. Odd, but good performances. Like it
brill!
Top job Tim, funny as hell
Really…..this is good.
Old people, with overly scripted lines.
Doesn’t feel contrived…really?
Harry M,
Get a life.
It’s charming, full of character and better than anything you’ve ever done in your whole life.
Dramatises the problem – not always the best thing to do. Also it lacks a little in the observational stakes – I’ve never ever seen a bunch of old folk who actually do all live together like this, nor is it a threat that hangs over them. Didn’t tell me a single reason why Westpac could help.
Now you tell me. Is that a good ad?
Funny, silly, charming, infinitely watchable – and with a point. That’s good advertising
It’s funny. I got a laugh.
Laugh = think about Westpac for home loan (positively).
Job done.
