I ran out of ideas on what else to do, so wondering if anybody here has any suggestions?
I bought my house 6 years ago, and since then the Ford Canada has been sending addressed mail to the previous owner, whom we'll call Bob. If it was the occasional flyer, recall notice, etc... that would be one thing, but I've gotten 3 in the last month alone.
I've called Ford Canada, and they claim privacy laws prevent them from not spamming me. Only Bob can correct his address. Even though, for all I know, Bob may have died 5 years ago. Bob isn't going to get any more mail. If Bob isn't dead, he clearly doesn't care to receive it any more.There is apparently no way I can remove my address from their system.
Some of the mail had Cam Clark listed on it, so I tried calling Cam Clark. They were very friendly and explained that they weren't sending any mailings. They even tried calling Ford Canada themselves. They were equally rejected.
So, my question here does any is there any way I can prevent some company from sending mail to my house? Any laws that would protect me in this case? I would like to be reasonable in all of this, I like Ford as a company. I just don't understand why they have to send me crap every week or two.
