They are well known as a purveyor of junk mail, once they have you on their mailing list you will never escape. You will get these type of 'wins' and free entry draws several times a month.
It is a shame as Readers Digest were always a wellr espected publishing company of a small 'newsy' type book/magazine, the fact that they bombard you with so much junk means you couldn't subscribe to any of their offers without serious damage toa forest or two. Personally I would write to them and insist they remove you from their mailing list immediately, I did that a few times and finally wrote to the CEO before I could escape.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
