High Places (highplaces.co.uk): unsolicited mailshot/brochure / Dubious
content on website
I've just received yet another hardcopy brochure from High Places,
despite having e-mailed them each time to ask them not to do so. I have
been on their holidays before (and had a decent enough time), I just
don't want their paper brochures (I prefer using websites). In the
process of googling their website for a privacy statement, and a useful
address to request (once more) they stop sending me their brochure,
Google produced a result pointing to content on highplaces.co.uk of a
more dubious nature which would one might not expect to find on a tour
company's website (it rather looks as if their website has been hijacked).
Google search:

Questionable link

(NB: if you are of a sensitive disposition, do not click on this link as
it contains references to porn)
If High Places had actually taken notice of my past few requests to opt
out of their mailings, I might have been more considerate in not posting
this on uk.rec.walking but sending it direct but they don't seem to read
their e-mails anyway, and I've rather lost patience with them anyway
(there's a moral in that story somewhere)
