opt out stickers

Post by eastie »

When we posted these opt out of delivery to neighbours flyers about 18 months ago there were not many takers for the service because half the people just chucked the flyer in the bin like all the other junk mail and the 4% of people that actually DID opt out on my round and got the small sticker attached to their letterbox have not got it anymore due to the sticker coming off / fading in wet weather etc,
Two questions spring to mind especially on my round is that people are asking me for new opt out stickers, where can they get them ??
and with a transient population in some areas cant they send these opt out forms annually

Not likely, delivery to neighbour saves RM money. It'd be like them doing a leaflet advertising opting out of D2Ds, be interesting to see what the uptake on that would be.

They can also call customer services

and that web form is only asking for the reason why you are opting it, its not a compulsory field on the page, people dont need to answer that part of they dont want to
