Catalog Choice Recenzje 10

We moved into a house that was formerly inhabited by hoarders. No joke, I was getting fifteen to twenty catalogs a day for months. Post office delivered them because they were addressed to the recipient or current resident. I had piles of catalogs that went to the recycling every week.
Contacting the company directly (Johnny Was - was a nightmare). meant they now knew my phone and email and new address to sell to other companies.
Catalog Choice was great at reducing the catalogs to maybe once every three months. Donation to the site is optional but well worth it.
Lord only knows why paper catalogs even exist - they can't be cost effective.
Companies like Patagonia make you ask to be on their mailing list because they are ecology minded and don't want to add to the tons of trees that get cut down and the resulting paper catalogs piling up in landfills.

There's no information on the website for MAILERS of catalogs to make good on the requests to stop mailing catalogs. I just learned that requests from consumers to stop mailing catalogs were piling up in my clients email inbox and they assumed it was being handled. There's no magic. Catalog Choice assumes the companies know how to manage the requests but aren't doing anything to ensure the requests are actually being managed. Catalog Choice should be taking your info and sending it to the national opt out list managed by the DMA. They should also contact the leadership of any company directly on a regular basis to be sure they have a process in place to get these requests where they need to go. Catalog Circulation is OFTEN managed by an outside consultant. I had no idea my client was getting opt out requests and we have 650 that were ignored because their customer service person didn't know what to do with the requests. They just saved them in a subfolder in their email inbox for years. Now I am aware of these requests and will make sure these people are suppressed from future mailings that I manage...but I might not be hired to manage the next mailing and how will the next consultant know this is happening? Catalog Choice needs better relationships with the companies who are mailing catalogs to close this loop. It's a great idea, but they don't seem to understand the dynamics of a small business or offer any support on the business side. I have contacted them with this complaint directly and hoping to hear back.

I continue to receive emails from this organization with which I do not have a relationship. Attempting to OPT OUT from Catalog Choice takes me to an unsafe link, so I am not able to exercise my right to unsubscribe from their service with whom I have never subscribed.

I've been using this FREE service for many years and have cancelled over 150 catalogs, easily and quickly. There are the rare corporations that ignore your initial request but that is not the fault of this website. I don't understand the complaints, especially when this service is offered for free. It is so much easier to use catalogchoice.org than to go to each vendor and request to be removed from their mailing list. I think CatalogChoice offers an excellent service, and I intend to donate annually.

I have used CC since 2008 and have successfully canceled 54 catalogs in that time. New ones pop up frequently and I don't expect CC to have every catalog provider listed, but I think they do a good job. This is a great service, provided for free (if you choose it to be). What's not to like about that?

Have been using Catalog Choice for years. Have used it to successfully stop the flood of junk mail to myself and several others. Is it 100% effective? No. They do not have every catalog or fundraiser listed, but you can make suggestions for them to add to their list. Also, some companies/organizations do not accept opt-outs online. One must call. But, CC shows this, gives a suggested script and allows you to keep track of the calls as well. You can see who you have opted out from and when that last occurred. Does your name get added back to mailing lists from time to time? Yes, maybe because you made a donation or bought something online. So, you have to go back and opt out again. But, opting out a handful of times per year vs junk mail daily is so much better. Because companies/organizations plan their mailings so far in advance, it takes weeks if not months for the mailings to stop from any one source. This is not a total fix it for junk mail, but is a great tool in its reduction.

Links on their site do not work. Unable to contact their customer support.

This service does nothing to stop companies that continue to harass you with unwanted catalogs more than a year after you have opted out and called the offending company several times over the course of a year. I just opted out AGAIN from a company called Catalog Choice. Catalog Choice's website tells me to come back on 11/15/20. Why, when I have been opting out since 2019? This company doesn't give a care about its users.

It is so wonderful not to have the mailbox jammed with unwanted catalogues. I can't believe how simple and efficient it was to use Catalogue Choice.
