This isn't a big problem, but I find that I can receive some offer or other just stating the name of the company but not the actual address. When there are several Durham Ox or Green Tree hotel or whatever, I dont know whether they are so sure that you will immediately know which one it is, or just hope that you will contact them to find out which one it is. So far I havent bothered to do so, but I dont know whether they havent bothered to proof read their message to be sure that the reader could find them, or perhaps somewhat arrogant to think that anyone would immediately recognise them.Does anyone else find this happening to them?

Yes - I've noticed that a glossy flyer comes whizzing through the letter box extolling the virtues of some eatery, or similar, but trying to find any indication of locatìon proves fruitless.

Frankly, if they can't be bothered to give an address then I can't be arsed to waste time Googling it.

Yes it is frustrating. I find the same if I want to buy something online. If there is no address, phone, number or email I don't bother. I especially dislike the ones that say email us and it comes up with a box to fill in and forward. If you don't want to tell us where you are then don't bother trying to get our custom.
