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.
