Well i was watching tv and i noticed this...

Do you know a company named "Tele 2"..i think it as begun to spread all over europe....now here's the point...

In their comercial they say things like...
-In PT(the other phone company) as prices 20 % over ours(f example)...why won't you change to tele 2?..

I mean this things ain't legal are they?

Some times companies has divisions...Like in my country:

In chile The market Chain "LIDER" has an agreement to use the name of the market "JUMBO" on their sales...

Obviously, they put a list with prices more cheaper than the other one...

Usually this would be ilegal, but they had the agremment so... it's legal to use the name of the other on they offerts...

Sorry if my english is to weird... But I'm from latin america and my english is not very good... Spanish is my language ^^

It is legal to say it but only if it is true, or so I believe.

It's different from country to coutnry... inthe US, you always see ads like that, and they're often the best ones (especially ads from Pepsi attacking Coke :))

the Tele 2 adverts are legal, since what they are saying is true, it would be illegal for them to say

"raaaar, we totaly own PT, they can bow down and kiss the ring"
