http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/sho ... ?t=2146645Of that list, I'd have probably gone with The Sun too  , though BT and Abbey would have to be taken into consideration... The entire DSG would be my non-list choice  So, who would you pick, from the list or otherwise?

Why isn't Halifax/Bank Of Scotland on that list. I'd make those backstabbing [LIFTED] vanish in a nanosecond.  Of the ones on there, I'd say Ryanair. They used to just be a cheap airline. Now they clobber you with hidden charge after hidden charge. Or maybe BskyB. We used to get everything free, now we have to pay several times over and watch more adverts than ever.

The quality of the video is pretty bad, but I thought you might appreciate this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chHC5-ouRxQ

If I vote Abbey, does that mean my mortgage would disappear into thin air too?

I like your logic, sir. It's not on the list, but Southern Electric would disappear along with a mysterious 500 unit electricity consumption blip in mid-summer last year. Why certainly, have £800 without question

Daily Mail, without a second thought.
I'm surprised so many voted for The Sun. I bet they were all Mail readers...

Asda has to go, purely because of their retarded adverts. For the same reason I will never ever ever buy anything from them.

BSkyB. The guy has too much power and owns most of the newspapers on there as well.

+1 The disabled charge was when I vowed not to use them again. It's interesting that #1 & 2 are both now owned by Santander. Is the incoming rebranding a cause or symptom?

The Daily Mail and The Sun, definitely.
Their demise would be a great service to the country. "the nation demands answers", "the nation demands... whatever" etc etc.. Since when? Not once has any representative from either of those two rags contacted me, or anyone I know, for an opinion.
Completely agree on Ryanair too, just for screwing thier customers at every possible opportunity.

My choice would have to be Haliburton.
Followed very closely by Microsoft and First.
