Mailing Preference Service
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills what estimate his Department has made of the number of people who have chosen to use (a) Royal Mail's opt-out scheme and (b) the mailing preference service.
- Answer
-
BIS has not made any estimates on the number of people who have chosen to use Royal Mail's opt-out scheme or the Mailing Preference Service.
Government has made sure that UK consumers can at any time choose to stop receiving unwanted mail.
Preference services have been put in place for any one who does not want to receive unsolicited mail-addressed and unaddressed. Registering with such services is free and simple.
More information about these services can be found on the Mailing Preference Service website
