Ad Feedback - Repetitive Ads

[bumperpool]

Pandora please, cancel your Tide ad "coffee stain on my white shirt"

It is the most irritating ad I have ever heard in my life, I can't believe how ubiquitous it is in my car, on TV, and the internet.  Literally told my wife to stop buying Tide products because of it, and change channels to try to avoid that corny frustrating advert.  The actor/singer in it should be ashamed.

Or the most annoying ad that CONSTANTLY plays after its self, just saw it? Doesn't matter it'll play again. "Listen to pandora anywhere anytime, on the road, in your home, or by the fire in your home." Always the same ad. I literally stopped listening to pandora and switched to Spotify because of that ad.

Honestly, the repetitive ads are counterproductive to the advertisers.. i have heard ads from cindy at some bank and something with a sniff solo hundreds of times.. and i can tell you i will never purchase their products just based on the saturation annoyance factor.  I don't mind ads, but not sure why pandora cant or will not introduce more variety with ads.  I'm using other streaming sources now because it is so over the top with repetition.

Let me preface this with -- I absolutely HATE HATE HATE with a passion the absolutely STUPID Burger King ads where the idiot sings off key through the whole ad... "BKKKKKKKK HAVEEEEE IT YOUR WAYYYYY"

I listen to pandora daily and am a subscriber. I just started hearing these here now. Why is there no option to "downvote" an ad or say you don't like it so you get other ads like 99% of other streaming platforms? I'm sure you don't care about one subscriber, but I will cancel if I have to continue to hear that idiot in my ear all the time. It's infuriating.

Hi there, @tommyJ716. 👋

Thanks for your thoughts around this. I moved your post over to this existing thread to keep everything organized: Ad Feedback - Repetitive Ads

The ads that play on Pandora are delivered according to agreements we have with our advertisers whose contributions make Pandora possible. Unfortunately, there's not a way to control the kinds of ads that play on your stations, or to stop particular ads from playing. However, I've noted your request for this functionality.

At this time, there isn't a way to rate advertisements during your listening sessions. Another community member would like to see this option implemented and created this idea thread here: Ideas: Choose Types of Ads / Rate Ads

• You can upvote the advertisement and/or leave a comment to express your interest in having this option available to you.
