Graham Smith Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 A national organization that I am a member of has this extremely annoying habit - they keep sending me renewal notices despite the fact that I am a fully paid up member. I've gotten three in the past 6 weeks. At first I thought it was because they were trying to give me plenty of notice. Then I thought it must be because I just renewed. Then I thought maybe it was because they had my name listed twice. Now, 3 months after renewing and 9 before my membership runs out, I have determined that none of these can be true. They seem to just keep sending out notices without any regard to when your membership expires and without putting an expiration date on the renewal notice, month after month after month. Maybe they think that if they keep doing this people will forget or not check and will simply send them more money. It sucks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicald_223 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I hate those too...its not a popular Gunsmith assoc. is it? I get one almost weekly and I'm paid in full as well. They could really cut the membership cost if they would stop sending all these useless letters!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glockcomma Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 They do a lot of good work but the renewal notices are irritating. I've been told that if you call them and tell them that you only want your magazine and a renewal notice when your due that they will oblige.

LPatterson Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I've been getting that a lot from several different magazine subscription services, they list it as notice of renewal. But they are not the same name as I wrote a renewal check to the last time. I have noticed that some of the magazines I subscribe to are on the stands before I get them in the mail.

ima45dv8 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Call them and ask not to get spammed, I did and no more spam from"them." Same here. Took a couple of months to work through the system, but it was worth the wait. I hated it bad enough to make the call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-ManBart Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Yeah, I'm with you.....I started a similar thread maybe a year ago. Drives me nuts when I've just renewed something like a magazine subscription and two months later I'm getting renewal notices!!!! My wife actually didn't join that national organization because of all the junk mail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Precision40 Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 I got out when they started calling at all different hours wanting me to renew. And yes, I was about 3 months into a yearly membership as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
