How to Stop DirecTV From Sending Me Mail

Whether it is addressed to you or "current occupant," advertisement junk mail from DirecTV can quickly clog your mailbox and become frustrating. DMAchoice is an online service of the Direct Marketing Association that conveniently removes your name from the DirecTV mailing list, reducing the hassle of attempting to contact DirecTV yourself. Once your name is added to the restricted mailers list, all companies that regularly send out fliers are prohibited from bothering you with promotional advertisements. If you prefer to stop only DirecTV mail, contact the company to ensure your name is removed from its promotional mailing list.
