Having read it carefully (and yes, it is rather turgid), I just ticked the options which seemed entirely reasonable. Such as "Learn more about government entitlements now I'm retired" - which sort of admits that the time wasting trip to Aldershot I had to endure didn't tell me everything.....

I sent mine back to them, having ensured that the 'marketing' boxes were firmly 'un-ticked' (sorry to sound a bit Umerrikan... ).

All in all, it seemed to indicate to me that SPVA realise that they need to do more for us old farts. The first unsolicited bit of junk mail which I receive as a result will cause them pain......

Sometimes you get your own back on marketing $hit though. I had a "Why didn't you accept our offer" whinge-o-gram from Privilege today, after I'd refused their ludicrous insurance figure for my Teutonic tourer. Given a good 'shared knowledge' ex-service web-group, we old buggers can wield a pretty potent stick to such companies! Maybe 'Clubbabysealstogether' can deliver that?
