King Price refuses to harass me with marketing material!

King Price refuses to STOP harassing me with constant marketing SMS’s!!

I have rep**** “No” several times to opt out of something I never even subscribed to. Every SMS cost me money. WHY are they still harassing me??? I have sent emails, I have sent a message to their Facebook page and tried to get hold of Gideon Galloway and/or Yolandi De Goede, but with no luck - wait for this: since the employees do not even know their own head office number.

Where did they get my cell phone number? Who gave them permission to constantly harass me this way?

Hi there, 
 
POPIA is here… And here’s how to remove your personal info from 
marketing databases 
 
King Price (and most other modern businesses) use affiliate companies to run SMS and email marketing campaigns. It’s important to note that we don’t own or contribute to the databases that these affiliates use. 
 
These affiliates should be registered with the Direct Marketing Association of SA, which allows you to opt out of these messages, via their website. 
 
If you want to remove your personal info from these databases, here’s what you need to do: 
 
• Visit their website on :    https://www.nationaloptout.org/ContactPreference/RegisterContactPreference 
• Make sure that you fill in all your cellphone numbers and email addresses, as well as your ID number. 
• Allow about 8 weeks to unsubscribe you from all registered databases. 
• You’ll have to unsubscribe again every 3 years. 
 
That’s it!

Reviewer Update
I have entered my details on the DMA National OPT OUT Database. Since blocking King Prices' numerous numbers they use on my phone did not help at all. Every time they use another number to get hold of me. I do hope this harassment will end now and you will most certainly hear from me should I receive ANY marketing material in future from KING PRICE! This has gone far enough for long enough.
