Why do I hate mailing lists?
I simply HATE mailing lists of any kind!
Few weeks ago I ordered some Sempervivums at a nursery for the first time.
It is a nursery from an EU member state country!
I give them my real name, address etc ... along with my email. After all, they got to know where to send the parcel.
They have a mailing list but since I prefer to check the page for newelties now and than I did dot register.
And than came Sunday morning ...
Surprise, surprise!
I got a mail from the nursery - my real name and family name along with my email address was "acompanied" with some 30 other people's datas (name, family name, email!) this mail had been sent to.
Remember - I did not applied for mailing list so what I got was a 100% .
And if as this was not enought they also revealed my real identity to some 30 complete strangers!
I wonder do they know what privacy policy is at all!

Re: Why do I hate mailing lists?
I asked them not to do it again, but few weeks ago they did it once again.
I really do not know the reason for that, but I find it really disrespective to the customers not to care about their personal information and give the names and emails away to complete strangers this way.
Once again I asked not to do this again, and this time I was not polite ...
