Ha! Awesome. I will not only take care of this myself, this week, but I'll use the stickers my building owner left me to use when I fill out the forms! Thanks! – kmeelyon, about 1 hour ago

You can also go to the post office and fill out a form stating that particular names are no longer at your address. A bit of a pain but it stops it once & for all.

Nice, stickers always make things a little less painful. Thanks for the tip! – Leslie Chicoine, 1 day ago

Unfortunately, Facebook does seem to have a bad strategy for dealing with both public relations and customer service, but I don't think that should stop us from trying to change that. I think we should keep sharing what knowledge we have and build up even more of a public presence so that Facebook will at some point have to respond. – Eric Suesz, 3 days ago

I want to know from satisfaction, what improvements have facebook made in the seven months (plus) that this discussion has run? Have there been any improvements? Do you sincerely believe that they are working hard o the matter??

I also want to know how realistic is it that facebook will resolve this matter, as I am beginning to realise that its no easy task? It would be wrong of us to be unrealistic, but we should certainly try and get the best service possible!

In the perspective of satisfaction what is a realistic time frame in which you believe this issue can/will be resolved? How long will we have to wait??

Man I hadnt worried about facebook in like a week or two, n then this morning I got a call from a friend I new in primary school who I had exchanged numbers with who politely mentioned that he hadn’t seen anything on my news feed for a while, man I felt bad!!! n so I ended up writing in to satisfaction today!!!

One thing that my apartment owner did that was kind of helpful is he provided me with pre-printed "please forward to this address" labels for the former tenants who were still receiving mail here. It made it really easy for me to just paste on the label with the new address and pop important-looking things back in the mail. That said, it certainly doesn't stop the new mail from coming. I do think that Greendimes (as Katie posted) has also limited the junk mail. But I do occasionally get stuff for the old tenants.

Greendimes is interesting! There's a free option and $20 and $36 dollar packages. I might talk it over with the roomies and get an account. Thanks for the tip! – Leslie Chicoine, 5 days ago

I have done the same "return to sender" thing that Carla described above. Another thing I've done is sign up with Green Dimes (greendimes.org). They will stop the junk mail even if it's addressed to past tenants.

I also toss out most of the mail, but when something looks important, I do as urban_mermaid above does with "Return to Sender" and cross out my address. Additionally, I write "Addressee no longer lives here."

i toss most of the mail that comes for the guys who used to live at my place over 5 years ago, but every once in a while a "real" piece of mail pops in and i always just cross out the address and bar code and write return to sender, and pop it back in the mail.

I got my account disabled and I wrote to all the accounts you guys have listed here but I didn't get even a "recorded" reply... is that normal? I'm in tears here... yesterday was my birthday and I received many many messages and wall posts. I politely replied to them and then all of the sudden, I got not a warning but an email saying that my account had been disabled... great birthday gift from facebook...

My account was re-activated yesterday. I didn't expect it so soon. But if they disable it again, they won't be able to re-activate it.

Use facebook with caution!

I was disabled after someone told facebook I had profiles for my parrots. They disabled all the parrots accounts and my own. There are a lot of pet lovers who do this on facebook. There is nothing in the TOS that state "non human" use is prohibited.
