Free "Delivery to neighbour opt out form"

I have opted out via the Mail Preference Service (as well as the Telephone Preference Service!) but I didn't know I could stop the postman delivering all the pizza leaflets, Virgin Media 'to the Occupier' envelopes, British Gas 'get a new boiler now now now' leaflets that usually land on the mat on a Monday morning in one big unaddressed handful.

Is there a facility on the Royal Mail website to stop this? If there is, how does the postman remember who not to deliver a handful to?

I have filled in an opt out for junk mail that the Postman delivers. I'm also MPS registered. I have a label on door saying "No Junk Mail Please" Yet the Postman puts stuff in nearly every day.

Yeah MPS for the letters and a opt out form for the junk mail that the postie delivers, two seperate forms.

Sorry. postie delivers unaddressed leaflets nearly everyday, even though I've got the label saying no junk mail please.

signs on the doors are pointless and to be ignore
how old is your opt out?
they only last 2 years
Are you sure they are coming from RM? M dont have enough contracts to deliver every day unless they are doing 1 per day

Doesn't matter if you have a label saying no junk mail. The postie would be breaking the law if he didn't deliver what he was contracted to deliver.

In saying that, opting out doesn't always work with RM. Especially if you have newbies on the round. Still receiving D2D months down the line....

If you don't trust your neighbours firstly you should move :rotfl:

Yes because it really is that simple. When we first bought our house 3 years ago our neighbours were lovely, but both sides have since moved and now we have one side that's a house of renting 20-something lads who (judging by the noise they make) don't ever register that they HAVE neighbours, and the other side I believe have stolen a parcel of mine before (red card from RM said it was left with them, they denied it) and there are freebies that have never got to me either (can't prove anything there though).

What bothers me is this sticker business - how big is the sticker? Is it like a big red flag saying 'we don't trust our neighbours'?

This is the sticker:

The sticker measures about 5 inches by 2 inches.
