At least there is some (complicated) method to unsubscribe.
I try to unsubscribe from Amazon's affiliate spam newsletter for years now, but it just doesn't work. I can toggle the "subscribe" box on the website as many times as I want - no matter what the website displays, the mails just continue to arrive in my inbox.
I've contacted the support numerous times now, but they either tell me that "after unsubscribing it takes some time until you stop to receive the mails" or that "we've unsubscribed you now manually". Of course this never worked.
So if anyone from Amazon is reading this: This concerns the German "Amazon PartnerNet" affiliate program and the message category that I can't unsubscribe is "Feedback zum Partnerprogramm". I'd happily send you my account information if there's any chance of fixing this annoying bug.
- bdonlan 15y agoWith amazon, it's possible to have multiple accounts registered to the same email (with different passwords). You might have unsubscribed on one account, but not on another.
- zecho 15y agoThat may be, but Amazon has ridiculous options for turning off emails. For example, if you're a member of Amazon Student or Amazon Moms (which includes a limited version of Prime), you can't opt-out of emails about Student or Moms without actually dropping the service.
- madiator 15y ago"If you would like to stop receiving e-mail offers from Amazon Student, you may cancel your Amazon Student membership here:<link>" : UNBELIEVABLE!
- gst 15y agoUnfortunately that's not the case. The footer of the mail lists the associate ID which is identical to the ID for which I've turned of the mails.
