In the surveys we can our address. But we will get all stuff related to them. For some offers I don't prefer to give it. It is not so good to get junk mail

I don't like how you get completely spammed if you give them your address.  I mean, first off, it's a waste of trees.  It's like, really?  Plus the stuff they send is rarely any good.

What I don't like is offers that ask for a VALID cell phone number.  We don't have a cell, and we'll never have one.  So I have to pass on many offers due to that.

On some you could probably give a PO Box, or even your work address.

I don't like the wasting of trees either.  We need all the trees we can have to produce the oxygen so we all can breathe.

I always use my real valid address on surveys/offers and rarely get junk mail. In fact, I have actually received a few gift cards and various coupons, etc that have been much appreciated! Great thing about junk mail is, if you don't like what you see, it's only a short walk to the trash can (or recycling bin)  :P

Just black your your address and recycle the spam mail and save more trees,  :peace:

I've had no problems using my address, but I have had problems giving my cell #.  The survey companies are charging subscriptions to my cell phone carrier.  I've clicked "stop" to make sure it's cancelled, but my response is considered a reply and confirmation that I want the subscription, so I do not do that anymore.  My phone carrier was nice to make sure I wasn't charged anymore, but it took a few phone calls to make that happen.
