Fair point, but you're also doing your bit for the environment by not receiving any junkmail...

I voted hot but people need to remember this is a bit of a vicious circle....
Royal Mail get paid by the advertisers to post the leaflets.
If we all stop receiving them, the advertisers stop paying Royal Mail.
Royal Mail then put postage costs up to compensate.
We all pay more for sending the fewer and fewer letters we do send....

I used to just save up my junk mail and post it back to whomever sent me an envelope first.
Job done, Royal Mail get paid twice. :wink:

Even more pathetic, it says to email them your name and address and they'll "send an opt-out form to your address." Not your postal address, which you're asked for. No, no... they'll send you a .pdf to print and return in the post. The same form which is available on the page anyway!

Thank you.
It's 2016 I should be able to opt out online!
Unbelievably backwards.
