In November of 2011, the UK government unveiled plans to create a website to enable people to cut down on any unwanted junk mail by opting out from receiving it. This streamlines the process a great deal, as before you had to register on three separate sites, or send an application by post.
Remember, when signing up to services, the organisation will sometimes automatically send you junk mail unless you tick a box telling them not to. Ensure that you read all such forms carefully. You can also register with the Royal Mail’s ‘Door-to-door Opt-out’ service, which will stop Royal Mail postmen delivering unwanted mail. Finally, you can contact the organisations that are sending you wanted mail directly, and ask them to stop.
