    Stopping junk mail to your company

    A combination of registering with the Mailing Preference Service, Telephone Preference Service and having an ex-directory landline has minimised my exposure to junk mail and random calls from our our old colonial chums in Asia.

    However since setting up a new company in preparation for April I have started receiving company-related junk mail. Its like vultures circling the second you have registered something at companies house, despite ticking the box that declines unsolicited contact.
    It did give me great satisfaction to tell HSBC they could shove it over their Indian call centres though.

    The MPS only covers residential addresses, is there anything similar for protecting companies?
    For now I have just been contacting company junkers to ask them to remove my company/address from their mailing list.

    On the contrary - through unsolicited email, I have discovered more than 8000 suppliers for my viagra retail business, the secret to growing a monster nob, and nearly 700 stock tips. I expect to be a millionaire in very tight trousers by Christmas.

      I have myco registered at some address in the city and they don't forward any non-governmental/HMRC/Companies House mail to me. I never knew why this was a good thing until now.
