New emails about updates

62 replies

Smelborp · 17/01/2020 23:30

Why are there so many new emails telling me there’s an update on a thread? Why would anyone want an email on this? We can go to the site and check ‘I’m on’.

It seems a bit counterintuitive as all it’s made me do is unsubscribe from everything. They’re still coming though - I’ve had several today.

Gah - more today ! Please stop them. Am unsubscribed but seems to make no difference

For the love of dog please respect my
Wishes to unsubscribe from the update emails I never subscribed to in the first place

I got another email, @KimMumsnet?

The unsubscribe doesn’t work. It just ticks itself automatically when you try and save your options.

teo - two
lonk - link

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 27/01/2020 21:31

Had three emails today after previously unsubscribing from all. The last teo came after I again unsubsribed with a lonk from the today’s first email.

Had another one of these emails, today.

Why haven't @mnhq replied on this thread?

SomeHalfHumanCreatureThing · 19/01/2020 00:12

@BIWI yes, but the point is that you can't unsubscribe

ChocChipWookie · 18/01/2020 20:38

I unsubscribed earlier but still had more.
Very very annoying.

BoreOfWhabylon · 18/01/2020 18:30

@YetAnotherBeckyMumsnet has said on the other thread that they have now switched off the emails until theyncan work out how to unsubscribe from them.

BIWI · 18/01/2020 17:39

I think it's only the threads you've voted on in AIBU, isn't it?

Apileofballyhoo · 18/01/2020 17:32

I think it's just the AIBU. But it is annoying.

Fairylea · 18/01/2020 17:28

I have unsubscribed from every one I’ve had and I still get more, just about different threads!

willothewispa · 18/01/2020 17:06

I have an email address only for mumsnet, I never check it as the volume of spam is ridiculous.

MillicentMartha · 18/01/2020 16:35

I’m getting them too. If they don’t stop I’ll be unsubscribing from all emails.

T0tallyFuckedUpFamily · 18/01/2020 16:28

Thank you Kim.

Hi, all.
Sorry to hear about this. We're trying to get to the bottom of it now and will have an update for you asap, so please do bear with us.
Kim

I was wondering if there was a thread about this already. I have unsuccessfully unsubscribed from emails. It’s extremely irritating.

Fairylea · 18/01/2020 15:47

I hate it as well. Driving me crazy.

T0tallyFuckedUpFamily · 18/01/2020 15:42

Actually I’m going to report this thread, just to make sure MNHQ read it.

JellyfishandShells · 18/01/2020 14:33

This has been annoying me as well ! I was already unsubscribed to emails so don’t know why this has started. Please make it stop !

PickAChew · 18/01/2020 13:25

It's really bloody annoying. I did not opt in to these emails but I'm getting them anyway. It's making me not want to vote or even weigh in on a thread.

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 18/01/2020 13:18

That’s a bit presumptuous to send out emails we hadn’t sign up for! Just got one, unsubscribed and deleted. Not sure what’s the point in them. Not going to make me use the site more, rather less.
