Kleeneze Agents Ignore Door Signs Again!

It has been six days since Kleeneze posted an unsolicited catalogue through my letterbox. During those six days, my neighbours have been away. On their return today, they found 3 messages from Kleeneze asking for the return of their catalogue!
At least they did not post any messages through my letterbox!
Some of the excuses offered by traders when I receive unsolicited material is that the deliverer does not speak English or they were not wearing their glasses at the time! What excuse will they offer when I erect a 600mm NO ENTRY sign on my gate, with corresponding wording in Turkish, Polish and Lithuanian.0 -
Since I've moved to my current house (a little under a year ago) I've never specifically received Kleeneeze catalogues...until last night. The strange thing is that it says that they are coming to collect it tomorrow. Even if I wanted to read it, do they really think that 24 hours in my possession during the working week is going to be sufficient? It landed in my hall and within 10 seconds it was back on the porch.0

This is very extreme, but it worked. A friend got so fed up with either Betterware or Kleeneze putting their catalogues through their letter box - despite the no catalogues or junkmail sticker that the catalogue had the person's address on the order form and put a bag of dog poo in the catalogue bag and posted to them with 'I asked for none of this crap and you don't respond and here is some of my dog's crap'
Never had any bother from them since.0 -

This is why TPS registration will not stop market research calls and why many companies have a clause in their terms and conditions requiring customers to agree to 'market research' being carried out (without any opt-out 'box').
Of course, some companies try to circumvent the law by disguising marketing as market research.
My full-time work is making genuine market research phone calls so I am always at the sharp end when someone tells me they have 'opted out' of such calls.

Does anyone else find it hilarious that the cold-callers on OP's doorstep are preventing him from cold-calling everybody else on the telephone? :rotfl:"Most of the people ... were unhappy... Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy." -- Douglas Adams0 -
The main reason Kleeneze distributors keep delivering to people with notices on their doors, is because they are told to ignore them in their training, they are told they don't apply to them, Myself and my partner raised this issue with our sponsor, saying that if people don't want junk mail its their choice..he then spewed out all this tripe about averages and that even people with notices on their doors buy from Kleeneze , we never delivered to people with notices on their doors especially O.A.P's.
My advice is write a note put it in the bag saying you dont want anymore, and that should anymore be posted they wont be put out, since the distributor has to pay for the catalogs they will cross you off their list.
Its not really the distributors fault most don't question what they are told by their sponsors (Trainer) they are told to stick to the system. we got out because we found their methods cult like and to be honest a scam.0 -
The company actually sells the catalogues to those that put them through the door! It is a massive pyramid selling scheme.0

Why is a 2 year old thread being dragged up?
It's all very simple - if you don't wish to buy, then just leave the catalogue on the doorstep until they collect it.

I did the above with a similar distributor (may not have been Kleenex - it was several years ago). I left one catalogue outside with a polite but firm note to say that I had no interest at all in their products and that any future ones would go straight in the bin. It worked.0
