Can't Unsubscribe from Newsletter, anyone else?

8 months ago by PiraHxCx to c/gog

So I have a GOG acc been a few years and unsubscribing was the first thing I did and they never bothered me, and out of nowhere the other day I received some newsletter about promotions and shit (not even stuff on my Wishlist) and I figured it's some reset with new ownership or whatever, I received an email about new policies a few days prior talking about how they are not connected to CDPR anymore and so... anyway, I unsubscribed, and made sure every notification was turned off, and just now I received another newsletter email...

You need to navigate to subscriptions and uncheck a couple boxes there. Whenever you claim a free game, they automatically subscribe you to their newsletter and marketing email list, and you have to unsubscribe again.

when you accept a free game on GoG you agree to join their newsletter. What I did after resubscribing every time I got a free game is just make a rule in my email client to delete them before I see them

Oh, I got the Alone in the Dark trilogy the other day yeah and I don't think I ever got a free game on GOG before. But I'm pretty sure I unsubscribed from their newsletter when they sent the email this Thursday. I did it again, I hope it works this time, else gonna have to contact support.
