Introduction
The Barrington Media Group must think that the third time is the charm! Three days ago, my deceased father (Earl Ferrell, 9/17/1927-1/25/2008) received here his third piece of junk mail from those folks.
This is the third article, in which I poke fun at the Barrington Media Group! They do not know how to stop! I assume that they enjoy wasting the postage price to mail junk to my deceased father, despite my two phone calls to try to stop them!
Junk Mail History
Two previous articles provide the backdrop for this junk mail to my deceased father. I reread them and enjoyed the satire. My previous self gave my current self a laugh. Please check out the following articles:
10/16/2021, Saturday: USPS Email: Dad Is Getting Junk Mail Here Today! (published 10/17/2021)
Saturday, 11-6-2021: Dad Got More of the Same Junk Mail, and I Got Junk Mail! (published 11-7-2021)
The Third Time Was Not the Charm!
The following is what my deceased father received at our address last Tuesday. I had to write on it. I redacted out our address.
Conclusion
Last Tuesday, I called 800-264-5420 for the third time during my lunch hour while working from home. I was not as polite this time. Instead, I was professionally demanding. My suspicion is that the sales representative (a man) will do nothing again. I asked for the name and contact information of the marketing director. Further, I demanded that the sales representative ask the marketing director to email me. (I provided my email address.) Finally, I suggested very strongly that the Barrington Media Group scrub their bulk mailing list against the list of deceased persons in each state. Despite speaking, the sales representative did not seem to be listening. As the conversation ended, he asked if he could help me with anything else. I replied that I am trying to help the company that employs him. I hung up.
The small print in each of the three junk mailings to my deceased father shows the mailings to be from the Barrington Media Group, 4 Armstrong Road, 3rd Floor, Shelton, CT 06484; 203-225-6161; contact@barringtonmediagroup.com. A man named Peter Stavisky started the Barrington Media Group LLC in 2003.
Today, on this Friday afternoon, I am “fixin'” to send contact@barringtonmediagroup.com a few thoughts in my glib, Irish style of writing! I plan to send my email with a read receipt required and with high priority. If my deceased father gets a fourth junk mailing from the Barrington Media Group, I will either call their corporate number or send them a certified return receipt postal letter.
I may eventually stop these folks. If not, I look forward to sharing this story with my father once I join him in our everlasting home.
