Is anyone else being inundated with emails asking you to optin to continue receiving contact from various sources citing the GDPR changes. Every day for a couple of weeks I've been getting them so dunno when they'll finally stop. Some of them where you just have to click one button are ok but some you need to go to their website to do it.

Getting fed up with GDPR again

Have been trying for a month to arrange a simple repair to a freezer

When you call the company, you spend a full minute (I timed it) listening to their GDPR policy before you're connected to an adviser
The adviser then proceeds to ask you to confirm your acceptance of the policy

This morning's second call was most enlightening when I called back to confirm the date of the visit that I thought I'd just rearranged
The first was to ask when the repairer was turning up today Not on system

Turns out that "all booked in" is the date that the repairer will phone to arrange the visit
