I think I'm going to stop using the flash as the basement has a much warmer look without, don't you think?

United Mileage Plus Credit Card Opt Out

Years ago i flew United and get about 5-6 credit card offers a year. It's really quite frustrating. I've tried stopping these but to no avail, but now i have hopefully gotten somewhere.

I called the number for the response line (866.652.3284) and waited without pushing any buttons until an operator came on. I actually got a pretty nice woman who was very helpful and I explained that I wasn't going to get their card so they were losing money and causing harm to the environment at the same time. She told me that I needed to give her the Invitation Number listed in blue at the bottom of the invoice and then read my addy off to me to make sure I was the right recipient. She then put me on the do not send list and gave me her name to check back in a few months if I was still having trouble.

Very cool. We'll see if it works.
