...i'm going to start doing this with those prepaid envelopes, i'm sure the same thing applys over here. officeofstrategicinfluence.com/bulkmailer/Dear Bulk Mailer, Please find attached to your no-postage-necessary envelope, this brick. I figured with all these great junk mails you send me every month, you'd like something in return! I know it costs twenty cents for every ounce I mail to you, so I hope it doesn't weigh too much more than an ounce. -Resident or Homeowner

To prevent the majority of 'JUNK' mail all you have to do is register your name and address (and anyone else in your household) with the Mailing Preference Service. www.mpsonline.org.uk/mpsr/All of the UK's direct marketing companies will check the MPS file before they mail out any postal campaigns. They will then remove anyone that has registered with the MPS. This will not however stop overseas junk mail, the (unaddressed) leaflets the postman delivers or political communication (propaganda). If you click on the link above you can register with the MPS and you can also register with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) which does the equivalent for those unwanted marketing phone calls that you may recieve (look for the TPS tab). The MPS and TPS are run by the direct marketing industry and it's in their best interests not to contact anyone who is not interested in receiving marketing communication. PS You will still recieve communication from comanies that you are a customer of e.g your electricity company or your car dealer. You will have to contact them directly to stop advertising communications from them. PPS Oh and I should have said, it's totally FREE!

PPPS Oh and you should have said it doesn't work, you will get called, you will get mail. You have to see the telephone calls as a challenge. See how long you can keep them on the phone for. Try and sell them something. If everyone keeps them on the phone for ten minutes, they will soon go out of business. Don't ask what colour underwear they have on until you want them to hang-up!

The postal thing sounds far to boring, i would rather send them bricks ;D As for telephone calls, it depends what sort of mood im in. If i have had a shit day then they just proveide me with an excuse to shout abuse down the phone until they hang up. If i have 5 minutes spare i do like fucking with them. Simple things like asking why a guy who can barely speak English through his Indian accent is called Jeff, making odd noises while talking to them then after a few minutes casually tell them that i have just wanked off to the sound of their voice, pretending to argue with the wife then tell them i think i've killed her, start singing to them or an air horn down the phone if i'm feeling really nasty (some twat that phoned me at 9 oclock one night got that one). Generally the more mental you act the better reaction you can get. Fucking hate cold calling wankers!

In every pre paid envelope I get I put a few egg shells maybe an old dried out tea bag ( with the corner removed ) a few bits of rice etc and a small note saying `thanks for continually sending me your junk through the post, thought you might like some of mine`. Dont forget to include your postal address. Its working quite well up to yet ;D ;D
