write to them with a firm letter, stateing that you did not request them to send you out this information or gifts, and there for you consider this to be 'junk mail'
inform them that they must remove your details off there lists, or else you will be seeking further advice, as well as informing all the relevant authorities.
usually works a treat !!

Send them mail through the return address requesting to opt out. Or try to find some other form of contact on the letters such as an address, E-mail address, phone number. Then contact them and ask them to stop sending your address letters. And if you can't stop them, just throw them away every time you receive them. :)

I give to the NSPCC monthly through direct debit and I used to constantly get letters from them asking for more money. Eventually I phoned them and told them that if they didn't stop sending me mail asking for more money I would stop what I gave them now. I haven't had anymore problems since. Another thing I find with junk mail is to put it all in the return envelope and send it back to them.

if they come with a reply envelope, you should take everything they send you, tear it up along with as much rubbish as you can stuff into the envelope (i once even wiped my botty on some of it) seal it and send it back including a note saying dont ever bother me again, be as rude and offensive as you can. remember its advertising companies sending this stuff not the actual charity.
as its a prepaid envelope they will have to pay the postage so the heavier the package the better.

Write "NOT KNOWN AT THIS ADDRESS!" on the front of the envelope and post it back. It should be returned to the sender.

Go onto the MPS (Mail preferential Service) site. It's easy to use.

Why not try bombarding them with all the crap that you don't want?
