    Just thought I'd let you know that I have a new privacy policy. If you give me your email I can tell you this via email, too.
  • Today I've had 38 "please don't leave" emails. 8 had competitions attached to resigning. 10 had discounts. All were ignored!

    In one way these emails have been good as I have had the chance to unsubscribe from loads I didn't even know I was subscribed to in the first place! Hopefully after the 25th, we won't get so many emails. I have only re-subscribed to companies I have interest in or run regular comps.

    Same here. I swear I have a flurry of emails from companies I haven't heard from in years though.

    I am sick of these GDPR emails now - especially if you do re-subscribe and you are asked to verify you are human via a captcha and THEN moments later they send you an email to confirm with yet another captcha AHHH! These emails should stop by midnight shouldn't they?
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

    This morning I had 1400 emails!!!! 90% email gdpr or whatever it is called, and then went out for my tea and came home to another 950 in less than three hours. After Friday I am guessing the time it will take to check my emails will be 0.01 of a second :) #bringonfriday :)

    They are falling like snow at the moment, every time I look at my email there's another 30 to be deleted.
