Isn’t it amazing that of the five (5!) Applications for Prohibitory Order that I’ve filed against Comcast Cable, that none of them have even been acknowledged by the USPS? I guess when I file the next one, I need to send it with a Return Receipt requested, so I will know that the Processing Center [...]

AT&T slammed me a few months ago. I made the huge mistake of giving them my street address when I called their slamming resolution center. I am now gettings tons of junk mail addressed to me as a “former AT&T customer.” Now I know if I ever get slammed, don’t give my mailing address to [...]

My old junk mail page is a bit out of date. I’ll start keeping it up to date via my journal entries.

I’ve been updating my stack of receipts from the Post Office Form 1500 applications I’ve filed. Over 25 companies are now banned from sending me mail. Unfortunately the idiots at the local Post Office don’t believe that anyone would not want that stuff, so I am still getting the Advo Shopwise garbage. I just wrote [...]

I have a PO Box at the post office downtown. I originally got this box because I knew I would be moving several times in a relatively short amount of time. I’ve had the box for over a year now, and get all of my bills, magazines, and correspondence there. Of course, there is also [...]

I moved from Blacksburg to the bustling metropolis of Fairfax County in northern Virginia. The apartment I am living in has locks on the mailboxes so I did not get a post office box this time. Big mistake! The first week after moving in, I received four pieces of junk mail. The next week six [...]

I haven’t received any junk mail from Kroger’s lately. I’m fairly certain that they haven’t sent me anything in 1999! In fact the only junk mail I get regularly are from companies that buy my name from APCC, the power protection people. APCC has not responded to my email requests that they not sell my [...]

Late in 1997 I wrote a letter to my town’s Postmaster. I requested that they declare my residential mailbox vacant. After a week or so, no more mail. What I had done before that was to fill out one of those Hold Mail forms, as if I was going on vacation. And I left the [...]

I have written several letters to companies asking to be removed from their mailing lists. I also ask them to let me know how they received my name and address. So far I have only received one response. That was from a local non-profit agency. But of course, they said that they did not know [...]
