lol, I’ve done this, multiple times. the only thing that has changed was that my name was replaced by “Residential Consumer” for the subsequent spam.
These are extra ignorable because there’s no way you’re going to end up paying the rate on the card. They are actually trash.
This is me and Dish. Been over five years and I still get at least one a month. Post office was kind enough to notify them of my new address twice.
Do any of these have return labels?
Spectrum still sends that much spam even if you are a customer already.
No, i dont want your tv bundle i literally havent had any desire to watch cable tv for over a decade please stop asking!
I received these about once a week when I was a Spectrum customer. Since I dumped them when ATT fiber became available, I now receive them three times a week.
Damn blurring out all the numbers must be more infuriating right?
Yes thank you for noticing my effort
They even ambush me every time I go to the grocery store. And they’ve doubled my bill since I signed up. Why bother marketing when you can raise rates whenever you want? They could save so much money by not mailing every day and hiring people to hunt me

At the scale these mailings are conducted, it all averages out into a net win for Spectrum. It suggests that enough people really do suck it up with the rate hike for some reason or another. Otherwise, they wouldn’t do it. Also, from their perspective, the wasted time, energy, and paper is all someone else’s problem.
My ex is ATT fiber which, despite having zero love for ATT, was pretty great.
They are trying to get me back…but they don’t offer fiber (or any service!) at my new address.
I have zero love for ATT but love my fiber plan. I’d like to switch, since they don’t let me change the DNS server, but the plan I had before was awful and my internet dropped all the time.
Are you sure about that? I’m using the official AT&T fiber modem (Nokia white oval) and a pi.hole for DNS. I do remember needing to change a number of settings to get it to work though.
I’ll take another look at it. I had a pihole setup and tried to switch it over when I moved to ATT but couldn’t find any DNS options. After some quick Googling the unanimous answer seemed to be that ATT doesn’t let you. But I’ll look into it again, I would love to get my pihole working again.
I am using the pi hole for DHCP, maybe you just have to turn off the DHCP server on the att modem.
If there was a company which charged me $1 / month to send spam mail to a company I would sign up in a heart beat.
Imagine if a company got 10,000 spam letters via snail mail every month and they had to sift through each and every one to see if any contains actual pertinent information.
Sure it wouldn’t be much of a hinderance to the company itself but they would probably have to pay a few people at $30-$40 thousand a year to do it.
Call the number and ask for a pre paid return envelope to send a signed contract with.
Then fill the return envelope with all this crap.
Now they have paid 4 times for junk mailing you and they pay to toss out their own trash.
“We don’t need your signature, it can be one over the phone. Let’s do it now”
Ask if you can stack the offers. That could be an incredible offer.
This is why marketing is a bullshit job.
As are modern sales.
There should be a different name for people at a store that answer questions about a product on request.
No one should be trying to convince anyone to buy anything as a job. What the hell is that? If you make a cool thing, people will come to you. If you don’t, stop trying to pressure people into consuming.
Well in more technologically advanced sales, there are reps who understand the technology deeply and try to explain it to execs and other engineering folk who might be interested. This is a role I find pretty valuable, since some engineers don’t have good communication skills.
