Deliveroo’s TV ad was definitely misleading

I was amused to see that the latest Deliveroo TV advert was actually banned today, but rightly so. It was incredibly misleading, especially to the average punter.

The TV commercial basically tried to recreate a Deliveroo order where everyone in the house had ordered items from different restaurants. Sure, you can order items from different restaurants, but you would have to put multiple orders through, and you would most probably end up with several different Deliveroo delivery people arriving at different times (a logistical mess). Basically however you look at it, it won’t all end up in one bag like on the advert…

It’s sort of like a TV ad you might see on the Apprentice before being utterly slated by Alan Sugar.
