I keep getting tons of credit card offers in the mail from many different companies. How can I get off of this mailing list?|||The credit bureaus offer a toll-free number that enables you to “opt-out” of having pre-approved credit offers sent to you for two years. Call 1-888-5-OPTOUT (567-8688) for more information.|||Die.
just kidding! Really I have no idea, but I do wonder the same thing. They are really annoying!|||I dont think it's possible but u can try calling the phone #s or returning the mail back to sender to request to be taken off the mailing list. i hope they'll listen.|||Many have an opt-out number or address at the bottom of the offer that you can call or write.|||write return to sender on the envelopes and send them all back. the companies dont like paying the return postage so they take your name off their mailing list.|||If you decide that you don’t want to receive prescreened offers of credit and insurance, you have two choices: You can opt out of receiving them for five years or opt out of receiving them permanently. Call toll-free 1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688) or visit www.optoutprescreen.com for details. The telephone number and website are operated by the major consumer reporting companies. When you call or visit the website, you’ll be asked to provide certain personal information, including your home telephone number, name, Social Security number, and date of birth. The information you provide is confidential and will be used only to process your request to opt out.
Remember that if you have joint credit relationships, like a mortgage or a car loan with a spouse, partner, or other adult, you may continue to receive some prescreened solicitations until both of you exercise your opt-out right.|||go to http://www.optoutprescreen.com
This is the only way to remove yourself from the pre-approved or pre-screened credit offers. You may get non-screened offers still, but you should see your mail cut by 75%, at least with credit offers.
Rumor has it, you might even see a small increase in your credit scores, since you won't be getting pounded with offers for I believe 3 years.|||Lots of good information about this is at the link below. You need to proactively tell the companies to "delete" you from their mailing lists.
Many credit card companies will also take you off their advertising lists if you call their customer service number (Citibank will put you on a "do not solicit" list if you call and ask them.)
