| comcast just as bad I get just as much mail from Comcast for xfinity. Which is odd b/c I am a business class customer. I can't get xfinity while I'm on contract. You'd think they might know this and not waste money marketing to me. |

| Junk... It's sad, they don't let you unsubscribe neither and most of it is addressed to "Neighbor" or "Current Resident" etc. so you can't even refuse it as post office doesn't allow if addressed that way.
I was getting this crap when I had service, made me feel better about canceling it too! They waste so much money that could be used to reduce service cost. How about offer a way to opt-out if we don't want your junk! |

Smyrna, GA | I think I get that same crap from them every 5 to 10 days. I love the headlines on their mailings. "Dear educated consumer"....
Of course I'm an educated consumer. That's why I didn't sign up for your service. |

| That's nothing! I collected the amount of junk mail I get from cox for a month and posted it here: »[Off Topic] Dear Cox Advertising Department I get that much mail, every month...between 17 and 20 different items. I contacted cox multiple times to see if they can scale back, nope.

| Send it back! I used to save the junk mail like that from a couple places and after I had a nice stack and they sent me something with a reply envelope I would stuff all their stuff in it and mail it back to them. They get charged more than regualr postage rate for that service so getting a extra heavy package will get their attention pretty quick.
After doing this 2-3 times I no longer get their stuff. |

| Insight Insight Broadband (Now owned by Time Warner) is also really bad with this.
They send me 2-3 letters per week disquised as other companies. Then when I open the letter it's the same "LIMITED TIME ONLY" message about buying a TV package.
They take it a step farther though. About once per month I get a phone call from some "quality control" person to make sure my "service is working well"... "Oh it is?...Well can I interest you in upgrading your service to include TV with this limited time offer?" |

| cost estimate Anyone have any real idea of what this costs....development, production and delivery?
I dumped my AT^T cell over a year ago and I still get weekly crap in the mail.

That's what you get for being a Cox Sucker!

(Yeah, they didn't like it either when I screamed that as I left their lobby years ago after turning in my cable equipment before I moved out of Fairfax County.)

The only difference between Bush and Obama is the group they're wasting our taxpayer money on. It's time to elect responsible legislators. |

Re: Spam said by SpamEater :....and hey, they're keeping the USPS off life support. And that's a good thing? The USPS should have died a long time ago. Any organization whose cornerstones are poor service and lazy employees doesn't deserve to be around, especially when there are private sector competitors who do a far superior job.

Re: Send it back! My dad had a VP that would do something similar. They used to get product catalogs from people wanting to see them equipment and often they didn't pay enough postage so they would charge us the postage. It would irritate him that we had to send someone over to the post office to pickup a package and then pay to pick it up only to find it was something we had not ordered. So he would go out to the warehouse and find a bunch of random nuts and bolts and send a package back to the sender, short of the postage, with a nice little note.

Re: comcast just as bad Does it come to you in Spanish, like mine?
AT&T is also sending door-to-door salesmen through my neighborhood. One of them came by a couple of weeks ago and told me two big lies in less than a minute -- that AT&T no longer has a cap, and that I now have fiber to the home rather than just the node. Comcast at least hasn't done that. |

YES! Insight is the king of that... looks like an official letter from something important then you open and it's "Insight" ... I finally memorized their mailing address and just looking knew it was Insight without opening it.. I would sometimes get 3-4 pieces of mail from them a week. |

Charter is horrid about that around here. They usually disguise it as something important, but the dead give away is that it is usually addressed to "Neighbor" Or "Current Resident." Since no one by those names live here, I write "return to sender, does not live here" on it and stick it back in the outgoing box. No way I am switching from FIOS to Charter lol. |
