14! FOURTEEN emails so far, for ordering one item (a vacuum cleaner, excitingly).
Do they really think we need to receive so many damn emails? Even a "not long to wait now!" email. Plus about 5 texts. And.. the thing hasn't even been delivered yet! So, more delivery messages, a chance to review the supplier and the deliverer...
Anyone had more than that?

I, For my sins, ordered something from sports direct, and had the same issue. Inbox full of promotionall adverts the next day. To be fair, when I clicked 'unsubscribe' they stopped.

Vax, with Yodel delivery and Klarna payment.
Welcome to the site, order confirmed, 2 guarantee emails, payment confirmation, order processed, order on the way etc etc. Ridiculous.

Disgusting keeping the custom informed like that, I mean 14 emails that’ll probably take as long to deal with as posting on here about it. Fummin!

Everything has a carbon footprint, even in cyber space. You did use 3 services, but still they could reduce that. Plus it’s just annoying.
