A couple of years ago i opted out of all of Chase's marketing.
Today i received a letter saying they're changing it.
The letter has boxes with different products next to it (auto, insurance, investments, value added services, etc). it said if I DO NOT wish to receive mail offers from that group, check it off and send back the letter.
or goto dnmoptions.com, and enter my name.
What's the point of telling them I opt out if a couple of years later they tell me i need to tell them i'm opting out again?

If Women have an expiration date then you know opt out agreements will have an expiration date as well. Just fill it out and mail it back and stop bitching you baby!

Opting out just validates to the spammer that you have a valid email address. These email marketing firms are out-sourced, third party companies, if you opt-out from Chase (their client), they will just sell your information to another client.
It's all spelled out in most spam forums, I wouldn't opt-out, I would just file a spam complaint with their upstream ISPs.

You have no idea what you are talking about. We are not talking about opting out of email spam lists. We are talking about opting out of unsolicited physical paper mail.
IF you don't want these offers, opting out (of paper mail solicitations) is VERY effective.
Just don't speak if you don't know what you are saying.

Being in California, I get Privacy Policy notices once a year from everyone I do business with. Many of them ask you to resubmit your choices every year.
I'm opt'ed out of everything I can be and I never get spam, unsolicited calls and hardly any junk snailmail.

when you use the website chase provides the last page (after they confirm your opt-out choices) puts up this message:
Your mailing options have been submitted. Your options will remain in effect for five years, unless you instruct us to make a change. After five years (or sooner if you move), you will need to contact us to renew your choices.
Please note that you may update your choices at any time. Any changes you make will replace all of your previous selections. Therefore, you will need to tell us all your choices again.

What's the point of telling them I opt out if a couple of years later they tell me i need to tell them i'm opting out again? I wouldn't trust the site. It might look like chase, but it could be a spammer/phishing scheme. Call their customer service number to make sure and do it by phone. Also, while you're on the line tell them that you're considering cancelling the card for these idiotic practices. Or better yet, go ahead and cancel the card. There are plenty of other credit cards to choose from. I did, and feel good about it. When they asked why, I told them it was their idiotic privacy policies that didn't protect my privacy. If more people told them that, they might correct some of their problems.
