I'm not exactly sure what forum this would be best in. But....does anyone have any suggestions on how to stop the junk "pre-approved" credit card mail? I'm drowning in it here!!!! We get at least every other day one of those envelopes from at least 2 companies. (Almost always the same 2 companies too!!)

I am so tired of getting them and tried to google how to take our name off but....no luck! It's such a waste of paper!

Thank you!

My dh started returning this type of mail. Typically there is a prepaid envelope to submit your application. He would write on the app "not interested" or "remove from list". We did this several times, somehow they got the message. Maybe because the envelope/mail has to get paid twice?

I've heard about a consumer number that can be called to be removed from such a mailing list, but have never looked into it. If someone has I'll be interested too learn about it.

Good luck Jen.

For credit cards try 1-888-567-8688
For other junk mail:

I havn't tried either of these but they are recommended in the book It's All Too Much by Peter Walsh.

Good Luck,
Aagot
