How do I stop getting, "PriceScope's Weekly Bling News"?

[kenny]

My time is limited; I get too much email that I don't want.
I'm usually successful at stopping it, but not this one.
Starting around a month ago, PS has been emailing me, "PriceScope's Weekly Bling News".

I've looked all over the setting choices in my PS account.
I even replied to the email putting the word unscribe in the subject line.

Nothing has worked.
I detest spam regardless of how much I love a subject or a site.
... but don't want to quit PS.
A few years back vendors posting their thinly-veiled ads as posts over on Facebook's PS group is why I quit FB after a few days.

Do you all get this?
Has anyone been able to stop it?

Hopefully it's something obvious in the settings that I didn't notice.

Hi Kenny, not sure this is the solution but worth a try... go to your profile page and click onto privacy settings and uncheck receive news feed and uncheck receive site mailings. One of those might work. If not just post in the upgrade comments thread to alert Andrey or Ella.

Go to your profile page and click onto privacy settings and uncheck receive news feed. I think that should do it.

Thanks Missy.
Over a week ago I did uncheck the box for "Recieve site mailings".
But still, I got their email this morning.

Here's how it looks now when I just checked it.

Sorry that didn't work Kenny. Post here and hopefully there is a way to unsubscribe.

Aha.
There is a box (that they default check) for "Receive your new feed".

What's the diff between "Your news feed" and "sight mailings""

I thought "Your new feed" was some feature where each of us had a news feed we could generate and send out to everyone, not something written by PS.
If not, why would it say YOUR new feed and have choices for members or all visitors?
But then, what do I know?
All this social media stuff is a mystery to me.

I'll uncheck that box too and give it a try.
In a week I'll find out whether that worked.

If it does I'll recommend admin takes the word "your" out of that.
Also isn't it redundant since they've already got a box for "Receive site mailings?
What the heck is the difference?
If they are the same thing PS should remove one.

I don't know; maybe these days nobody expects anything to make sense.

Technology and software wennies can be so annoying.
We're all expected to be psychic about many things these days.
GRR!

At the very bottom of the e-mail - the last thing in it - there's a word that says 'unsubscribe.' Just click on it and follow that link and the procedure it takes you to. It can take a week or two (or sometimes more) for the unsubscribe to take effect, but it should eventually work.

What rainwood said. Typically every mass email has an unsub link at the very bottom in fine print of course.

Thank you very much Rainwood & Monnie.
If it comes again next week I'll do that since I've already deleted the email.
