Opt out of printed magazine and bulletin?

Hi.  I'm astonished that I can't find an option to opt out of the printed magazine and bulletin.  Please point me to how to do this if I've missed it.  If I can't do this for myself, please fix this for me AND put in a feature request to make this an option members can choose for themselves.  I would be very disappointed in AARP's level of environmental consciousness if this isn't already an option, and will re-evaluate my desire to continue as a member if it doesn't become an option.  Thanks.  --Robert

@RobertR460224 You got it, Robert! I have processed your request and you can expect the publications to stop being delivered within 4-6 weeks due to pre-printed mailing labels. If you're interested in checking out the AARP Bulletin and AARP The Magazine on the AARP Publications app, I invite you to visit www.aarp.org/publications-app for more info

I cannot find the stop printed publications and documents.  Please process a request from me to stop all paper products coming my way. - Graham

@vbuster Sounds good. I was able to stop the AARP publications for your membership. They will fully stop within 4-6 weeks. Please let me know if there are any additional mailings that you would like me to stop.

I'd like to opt out of the mailed magazine and bulletin. I can read them from your publications app. Why is there no way to opt out on AARP web site? Also, when I call, your bot tells me AARP can't handle call volume and hangs up! PLEASE stop these subscriptions for me and please, make it possible to opt out on the AARP web site. Thank you.

Please opt out of the snail mail paper delivery of the Magazine and Bulletin for my account.   I looked and looked and looked for an option to manage this myself and concur with other commenters above that this is something that needs to be added.  I too am one who would consider discontinuing membership over mail I have no control over.    Thanks for your help!

@RichardA891017 Here to help! I was able to stop the AARP Magazine and AARP Bulletin on your membership as well as mailings from our service providers. They will stop within 12 weeks due to pre-printed mailing labels. Would you also like me to stop all of your membership mailings? This would include your membership renewal notices.

While I appreciate you taking my name off the list too, wouldn't it be simpler to provide an easy and automatic way of opting out?  You'd save so much on printing and paper used plus postage that would help lower expenses for the Org not to mention, it would save you time that you could be doing something else.

 

Please also opt me out on receiving any printed mailed matter such as the AAPR Magazine and AAPR Bulletin.  Thank you.
