Johny Fernandez: Superbowl
commercials are always a

00:02.700 --> 00:05.760
highlight of the game, but one
specifically caught our

00:05.760 --> 00:09.360
attention.
Findamortgagebroker.com promoted

00:09.360 --> 00:13.290
an attack ad on Quicken Loans.
The ad said mortgage borrowers

00:13.320 --> 00:17.100
should choose a local broker to
find the best mortgage instead

00:17.100 --> 00:20.880
of the online rocket technology.
The rocket technology reference

00:20.910 --> 00:24.720

00:24.720 --> 00:27.870
Loans hasn't attacked back, but
it did run a superbowl

00:27.870 --> 00:31.410
commercial with Game of Thrones
actor Jason Momoa. If you

00:31.410 --> 00:34.650
haven't seen it, don't worry,
we'll put a link to it down

00:34.650 --> 00:37.920

based in London, recently

00:45.660 --> 00:49.920

00:50.220 --> 00:53.910
The company told deBanked it
doesn't have plans to rely on

00:53.910 --> 00:57.570
brokers, but it will instead
depend on affiliated partners.

00:57.780 --> 01:01.740
Its us headquarters is located
in Denver. Kabbage recently

01:01.740 --> 01:04.650
announced a new loan program

01:20.520 --> 01:24.270
