About LinkBacksI'm clearly biased so you'll have to tell me if I'm out of line on this but I don't see how this advert should be banned...

Well, it should be banned because it's a terrible, cringeworthy ad - like all of the Coral ads currently running, to be honest. However, the ASA argument is pretty tenuous. When you've got ads featuring Nicole Scherzinger having an orgasm because she's using Herbal Essences shampoo, to say that the Coral ad links the product to sexual success is pretty far fetched.

Obviously someone with too much time on their hands, I expect the complainer was anti-gambling. But I doubt the ad cost too much to make, and was probably made in 30 minutes, so Coral wouldn't have lost much.

People love to get offended nowadays, just because they're offended doesn't mean they're right, usually means they need to get a life.

Got to agree with Tryme, it is a pretty cringeworthy ad. But can't see why it should be banned, there are definitely people with nothing better to do.

Does sound like a giant waste of time on the complainers part.
Who knows - might work in your favour though if it ends up being posted around social media as a 'banned ad'.onlinegamblingwebsites.com - Formally known as goodbonusguide.

I am looking at this from the female point of view and I say that the advert shouldn’t have been banned. I mean the advert is not my cup of tea, but I wouldn't have complained about it.
Take a look at these Ads

Hahahah. I don't think the ad is offensive. Maybe to men because it makes them look a bit foolish.
Not really sure why someone would complain about it to be honest.__________________

Nothing wrong with that ad! Ridiculous. If we banned every advert that uses a hot girl to sell something we'd be banning a loooot of ads, but oh yes, we are gambling so we get picked on.
