    I keep getting a letter addressed to my deceased brother-in-law who never lived at my address! I get one of these every other month for the last couple of years ever since he passed away two years ago! I have sent the document back to them by mail letting them know that he is deceased and he never lived at this address and do not send me any more letters with his name on it and they keep sending them to me ! I dont want to receive any more mail from this business! I even mailed them the program from his funeral and they sent me another letter!

    I am tired of receiving documents that are being sent to an address that is not my official address. The residence they are sending this junk mail is a rental home and I DO NOT want any more mail delivered there under my name. I am tired of this and I have no other way to make sure they know this other than filing a complaint.It would be greatly appreciated if this would stop immediately.

    I dont want anymore Junk Mail/Solicitations from this company. *** tried returning to sender but it hasnt worked. And the fact that they put second notice/third notice, Important documents enclosed makes it seem like its some legal matter regarding medical/insurance benefits. I take care of my mom and she gets the same junk in the mail (same address) This upsets her when she gets these letters because she thinks something is wrong. So I want us both to be taken off of all mailing lists and call lists.

    Continue to receive mailings from this entity that doesnt have any reason to contact me. The mail raises concern with Second Notice across the outside of the envelope in Red for no apparent reason. This is just llc is a spammer with lipstick. If this was received via email it would be considered suspicious. It xontains all the red flags such as urgency, no sender information requesting perdonal odentifoable information. Stop sending mailimgs to the residents of our address.

    We have receiv** your concerns via the Better Business Bureau. Thank you for taking the time to express your concerns.

    Distribution Processing Center provides mail services on behalf of commercial entities that market legitimate products and services to the general public. We mail for many insurance companies and agents. Our mailers are requir** to be generic and not reference any specific plan information because we are not sure at the time of mailing which company/agent will receive the return** lead. So, by law we are requir** to be generic in our messaging. Also, since we are not the licens** insurance agent we cannot talk about specific plans. We mail generically and then forward leads to agents who are interest** in buying leads in the geographic areas in which leads have come in. That is also why there is no insurance company/agent list** on the mailer as it may not go to that company/agent. When we are talking about new benefits,we are referring to the many new plans that come out each and every year. For example, there recently has been a new plan that will cover up to $50,000 in funeral expenses. This plan was not around in previous years. Again, since we cannot be specific to a plan we have to speak in general terms.

    It is not our desire to send mail to anyone who wishes not to receive it so first and foremost let me apologize for any concerns our mailing has caus** you.

    I hope that we have address** your concerns. We have opt-** you out of our future mailings as per your request. If you wish to opt out of mail similar to this, it is best to use a national DNM registry such as DMAChoice (DMAChoice.org)

    This business has sent me mailers week after week from this business regarding insurance., I sent the mailers back with do not contact/take me off list and nothing has happened. Today is the last straw as I have a new piece in my mailbox. I am just asking for the junk insurance mailers to stop-it is not important documents enclosed as described on front of mailer, and it is not my second notice. I will not purchase or respond to any type of sale or plan for insurance that I don't already have. I am a senior citizen and enough is enough.
