Boston Globe refuses to stop sending me postal spam.

[darxus]

Globe Direct, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Boston Globe.

I've called them four times over the last 12 days. The first two on a Monday at 12:47, and Tuesday at 12:30. I've dug through their phone menuing labyrinth in an attempt to get a human and failed. Every time I left a very polite voicemail with my name, phone number, a request that they stop mailing me, and a request that they call me.

So I called the Boston Globe's main number, and asked them what I should do, given that they own this company that refuses to stop mailing me. After they suggested that I do what I've been doing, their response was:

"I guess there's not really much more you can do."

So I asked for contact info for someone within the Globe to complain to. They gave me:

Director of Sales
Susan Hunt Stevens
617-929-7310

She has no voicemail. Can't wait for Monday.

start putting "return to sender" on everything?

take them to small claims court :)

bill them :>

also tell them to not sell/trade/swap your personal information, address, phone number, etc.

i saw a service on tv, that you sign up for that drastically reduces junk mail, credit card offers, and protects your identity as well. apparentlyly it's pretty bad out there if they can make money at this.

"Rreturn to sender" does not work on bulk mail.
