The first Confused.com television advert was developed in 2006, four years after Confused.com launched. Since then, the price comparison market has developed considerably and, over the years, Confused.com’s advertising team has worked on a number of projects to keep the Confused.com brand at the front of your minds.
Some people like them, some people hate them, make up your mind by having a peek at our adverts below.

2010-2011: Somebody to love
'Somebody to Love', is one we're particularly proud of. It features, Cara - our new advert star. It first aired on 7 November 2010, during an XFactor ad break where Cara is joined by a backing choir of animated Confused.com customers, and there are a lot of them – 18 million to be precise. The vocals of the song though, are sung by West End star Louise Dearman, and she does an absolutely beautiful version of Queen's anthem ‘Somebody to love.'
2010: Regret
In this campaign, consumers were confronted with luxury items they could have afforded if they had bought insurance at Confused.com. A couple watch a pair of jeans parade before their bed, a railway station announcer is distracted by a guitar playing by itself, and a woman who wanted tennis lessons is chased by a ball. Watch the jeans advert here.
2009: Confucius
Confused.com introduced a character named after the Chinese philosopher Confucius, to act as a brand mascot. Confucius guided customers as they searched for cheaper insurance on the Confused.com website and offered philosophical insights into saving money with Confused.com. Watch a Confucius ad here.
