    Anyone getting a steady stream of junk mail from subaru?
    I'm getting a handful of insurance offers all endorsed by subaru.
    I hate it when companies sell off their addresses to make a buck.
    I feel betrayed.

    I signed up for the do-no-solicit list thing, and it cut the junk mail coming into my mailbox by about 1/2 or so.

    I've done it too. But it's disappointing that they took my contact information
    from their SERVICE record and sold it for a couple bucks. Maybe they're making
    some kind of kickback too. It puts doubts in my mind about the integrity of
    a company when this stuff happens.

    Is it SOA or a dealership?

    It's hard to say. I did go to SOA for service in the past.
    Thats the only time I gave subaru my info.
    What I should have done was appended -SOA at the end of my last name.
    Cool. I'm going to do that from now on

    They are business partners and since you've done business with SAO, Liberty has access to you as well.

    Thats a fancy way to say that they didn't "sell my information." I wonder who else
    is their partner. I guess this doesn't even fall under their privacy policy
    since it's "internal."
