Yes mate! >:( Also loads of junk mail telling me I've been specially selected for entry into a £250000 prize draw.......provided I sign a direct debit for a subscription to some editorial like Readers Digest, Which or the like. Credit card companies are up there too - always trying to get you to transfer balances th their card because it's so much better than all the others.!!

No wonder the rain forests are shrinking at an alarming wait!! >:(

Save up all the leaflets, and then post them to the takeaway without a stamp, so they incur the charge :)

my business bank keep sending me application forms for business loans, i have told them time and time again...NO!! i do not want them....

So the last one we got i applied for a loan £1,000,000 i didn't give a reason the for loan though.....

Had a phone call last week from one of the faceless business bods at the bank asking what i wanted the money for......

I told him, 'dunno seemed like a good idea to see if i could have it'
i was told ' we need a reason before we can consider the loan application'
I said 'i haven't seen anything i want to buy yet, but i thought i would be able to keep it in a savings account until i found something nice to buy'

there was a silence, bod then nicely said that the bank would not be able to help me, ok i said, 'does that mean you will not be asking me to apply for a loan again, this junk mail you send me wastes as much of my time as i have just done to you'  ;D

line went dead after then  :-?.......i wonder why

I think if you sent them back to the sender they get chaged double postage

Hehe and even more if you send them every one elses junk mail.

My Father figures that most of the rubbish he receives is delivered by Royal Mail, regardless of being MPS registered, so he puts in the letter box for them to throw away.

yep we deliver leaflets with our mail round, and as much as i hate doing it cos they can be extremely bloody heavy at times, we get paid a fair decent chunk on top of our wage for it.

we usually get 3 sets of leaflets per week, but you can contact royal mail and opt out of receiving them
