Stop Spamming Me

Good day,

I would like to report my dissatisfaction with the DA in particular with regard to their unsolicited marketing.

I have been receiving a large number of spam emails and sms's from them. On contacting the DA hotline and asking where they got my details from, they told me from the National Consumer Database. I know that there is no such thing as the National Consumer Database. I reported this to the Direct Marketing Association (DMA). I was informed that there is nothing I can do as Political parties have somehow found a loophole in legislation and are able to get hold of contact details and are able to contact potential voters.

I find this to be an invasion of my privacy. I contacted the DA and they know my ID number and name which I at no point gave to them.

There is no opt out option making the DA's direct marketing illegal. Not sure what recourse I have against them.

Just cannot trust politics.
