Your Mail
If you want to limit the amount of unsolicited advertising mail you receive you can take a number of steps to do so.
1. Register with the Mailing Preference Service (MPS).
Registering with MPS will stop most unsolicited consumer advertising material addressed to individuals personally and delivered to their home address by post.
Advertising from companies with which you have done business or charities from which you have requested information or to which you have donated in the past, will continue to be delivered. If this mail is not wanted any more, it can only be stopped by contacting the individual company or charity directly.
MPS cannot stop unaddressed leaflets, items addressed to "The Occupier", "The Householder" or a business, nor free newspapers and inserts in magazines and bills. Some local mailings may also not be stopped, but it may not stop mail from overseas:.
