Removing from postal list
 
At my workplace, which was formally a house, we keep receiving NTL leaflets. How would i go about removing the address from any NTL mailing lists?

A call or e-mail to customer services with the address should be enough to add the address to the Do Not Contact database (although this won't stop the sort of leaflet drops where a big stack of leaflets is given to the postie to go through every door)

The link given by py666 does actually cover unsolicited mail: the "TPS" (Telephone Preference Service) site has an MPS (Mailing Preference Service - the link given above), &, I think, also has a Fax Preference Service.

But, as you say, it would probably be more effective in this case to contact NTL.

True :)

And at least it could help cut other junk mail even if it didn't work for the NTL mail.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I will give NTL a ring tomorrow.
