Junk Mail

Fred Bloggs wrote:Perhaps if the people delivering Junk Mail were to get an education and learn to read they could get a proper job and not have to rely in stuffing letter boxes full of the junk fliers for everything from kebab shops to chinese takaways. We receive junk mail almost daily despite there being a large plate saying "NO JUNK MAIL" on the letterbox. Obviously they cannot read as they post the junk anyway.--- Anybody else have the same problem ?.

I think the post office are obliged to deliver it Fred. Postmen have been sacked for removing it in the past.
however what you can do is stick any prepaid replies back in the mail box and let them pay the costs or write unknown at this address and let them pay the costs again.
Or even better send large heavy envelopes preferably full of old junk mail without any stamps on to their mailing address and let them pick up the costs. , you can avoid having to use your own envelopes by recycling old a4 sized envelopes, I used to get lots of mail in those.

both types are equally annoying...the amount we received after we took out a mortgage here more than tripled! We have a sign too on our front door/security gate except they call it no soliciting over here and my 15 yr old was like "mum why don't you want lawyers to come to the door" at least he didn't think of ladies of the night for which i am grateful!
