What is it with you not respecting newsletter unsubscribe requests?!? Even though I never signed up, the newsletter arrived after my first booking, which admittedly was hassle-free. Even after I unsubscribed the first time, it keeps coming without any unsubscribe link. I definitely don’t find that acceptable!
