Complaint narrative:
Dear CFPB, first of all I want to thank you for following up on my previous complaint. I very much appreciate that a bureau like your exists and are here to help us! 

My complaint isn't of the gravest sort, rather an annoyance : the last months ( about half year ) my mail box have been FILLED to the brim with credit card commercials, pre approved cards ( actual plastic cards ) and fake advertisement where the banks write things like " URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED '' etc, and I just after having wanted a lot of tie reading through everything start realizing it's just fake ads and not anything dire or urgent at all. The main issue with all this ( apart from being incredibly rude, annoying, bad for the environment and the whole feeling of these money grabbing half criminals trying to trick me and everyone else into signing up for cards that we will loose on and they will get our money from ) is that they fill up my mail box so I can't receive other normal mail like my bills. I travel a lot and sometimes when I come back, I literally find my bills and postcards and packages underneath the mail box, because my mail box is so full of these fake ( and what i assume are pre approved real ones even! It's horrendous ) credit cards. 

I have previously had a long battle with XXXX XXXX about this, where they kept bombarding me even though I wasn't and never had been a customer of them and I kept calling to complain and ask them to stop. After I contacted CFPB they FINALLY have stopped now, it's so awesome to go to the mail box now - but only for a short while. because now two new companies have started : XXXX and XXXX. I have already submitted a complaint about one of them and will compete another on the other after this complaint. 

You see, I have found out that I need to go to the source of the problem : the credit companies, XXXX, XXXX and TransUnion. As far as I understand, it is THESE three companies that share ( or sell??? I wouldn't be surprised if they actually earn money on doing this.. ) my information WITHOUT my consent. So, today I am reporting all three of them, to hopefully have this harassment ( yes, that's what i will call it ) come to a final end. 

Again, thank you so much for taking the time to look into this, I really appreciate it so much! 
( Also : a tip about how these issues could be solved : In XXXX, where I grew up, we have an official sticker from the government that we can stick to our mail box where it says that they are not allowed to leave commercial in our mailbox. It is respected and everyone follows that rule in XXXX, so if you don't want offers, you won't get them. Pretty much everyone in XXXX has those stickers on their mailboxes, because who would want to be harassed like his?! Works like a charm! I wish there was something like that here too.. ) Have a wonderful day! All my best
