The postman delivers junk mail

MothballsWallet

I tried signing up for this opt-out last year, still hasn't worked as I still get unaddressed crap that the postie has to delivery because RM gets paid by some (imo) very selfish and stupid companies.

I don't really mind the unaddressed stuff and take away menus etc, it just all goes in the recycling bin!

they do it because it lets them sell products
if nobody bought from them they wouldnt do it?

custardy: I'll try the opt-out application again and see if it works this time, perhaps they didn't get my form

well for me,it really doesnt bother me
i will let RM deliver D2D's for as long as posties get paid for it
as soon(if) they remove the payment i will opt out
hopefully a few million others will do the same

If companies eg take away places want to waste money on junk mail then its up to them really, yes its annoying but it doesn't cost me anything to just stick it in the recycling box,

Many thanks one and all,,
I applied for this so called Royal mail opt out scheme a couple of years ago, the upshot of it was that in each sorting office there is a sign displayed for the postman regarding this opt out scheme and once registered all none addressed junk mail, leaflets, ect will stop. My brother in law a postman said he has never seen this directive/sign, and that royal mail make a lot of money out of these deliveries so you will still get them..

I have tired of asking companies like SAGA to take me off their distribution list and started putting all my junk mail into their return to sender envelopes.

Hopefully keeps the posties in a job?

well tell him to look in the sheet he gets every week with his D2D
it should list every D2D opt out on the duty

addressed mail is different from D2D items
you cant opt out from addressed mail if thats what you mean?
