This independent service helps customers opt out of junk mail, specifically catalogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, consider registering with <a href=\"https:\/\/dmachoice.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DMAchoice<\/a> as well, another independent service that filters out marketing mail you don\u2019t want to receive (note: this applies only to mail from marketers you\u2019ve never had correspondence with).&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While DSW doesn\u2019t provide a timeframe for how long a mailing list opt-out process might take, in our experience you can expect to wait between 4 to 6 weeks for it to take effect.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-to-do-if-you-keep-receiving-marketing-material-from-dsw\">What to do if you keep receiving marketing material from DSW&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, your request won\u2019t take immediate effect. But, if it\u2019s been 6 weeks since your opt-out request was confirmed and you still receive DSW junk mail, try the following:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Write \u201cRefused: Return to sender\u201d on the front of any junk mail from DSW with a return address and put it back in the mail.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make a formal complaint to DSW by contacting their customer service team. Further contact details, as well as a live chat option, can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dsw.com\/en\/us\/customer-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-stay-off-ds-ws-mailing-list-for-good\">How to stay off DSW\u2019s mailing list for good&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think you receive too much unwanted marketing mail from companies, including DSW, the best thing to do is opt out from as many mailing lists as possible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it can be incredibly difficult to stay off these marketing lists, even if you\u2019ve never had any correspondence with a particular company before. It\u2019s because there\u2019s a good chance online <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/blog\/what-are-data-brokers\/\">data brokers<\/a> sold them your personal information without your consent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data brokers gather publicly available information online, and package it to sell for marketing purposes\u2014sometimes to the highest bidder. It\u2019s completely legal, but can lead to increased junk mail, <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/blog\/how-to-stop-spam-calls-robocalls\/\">robocalls<\/a>, and spam text messages for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the only effective way to stop junk mail once and for all is to opt out of the data brokers themselves. This is doable, but with over 500 individual data brokers operating in the U.S. alone, each with different opt-out processes, it takes a lot of time and energy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As an alternative, you could hire a data-broker removal service to do all of it for you. <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/\">DeleteMe<\/a> is the market leader, and for over ten years has helped customers take control of their data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DeleteMe specializes in removing personal data from data broker sites, and once removed, monitors these databases to make sure your information never gets relisted.Plans start at $10.75 a month, so <a href=\"https:\/\/joindeleteme.com\/\">click here<\/a> and start seeing a reduction in junk mail right away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Designer Shoe Warehouse, or DSW, is a popular American retailer that sells name-brand shoes, handbags, and accessories.\u00a0 Unfortunately, they also send frequent marketing material to encourage prospective customers to buy products\u2014solicitations that can easily be classified as junk mail.
