So when you unsubscribe, that notification likely has to be passed through various internal systems and then on to the vendors handling distribution who can remove you from their lists. These are frequently batch process that only run periodically...

So an unsubscribe on Saturday morning would take at most 5 business days. The user was quoted 7-10 business days just to be safe.
