I've unsubscribed from everything I can find on your website, but the emails for "Must Read" updates keep spamming me. Where do I turn it off?

Ok, this may have worked:  I opened up SA from another browser which in effect logged me off from my normal account (probably could've done same on w/o changing browser).  Then I went to SA and per its instructions, logged on choosing VIA GOOGLE (ie, not via "Email" account, as I had done with normal account), and thus got on w/o having to enter a PW.  Then I went to Alerts / Newsletters and noticed that "Breakfast" and "Have to" newsletters showed "SUBSCRIBED".  So I toggled them to UNSUBSCRIBE and clicked.  Hope that worked!

So far, so good! No more newsletter emails..

Same here, bombarded with updates and unsubscribe doesn't work. This website is not very user friendly. Not to mention there is also some inaccurate information . Ex-dividend dates are wrong.

Same problem for the last 3 wks or so.  Yes, these newsletters ARE being sent to my other email address.  So, knowing that, how do I unsubscribe them from that other email address, since nothing changes when I unsubscribe in my actual account -- which I am sent to when I click the link at the bottom of the newsletter's page: ie:

"If you do not want to receive Wall Street Breakfast emails, click here to unsubscribe."

I have made half a dozen time-consuming attempts to unsubscribe over the last two weeks.  No joy.

I also had that experience.  The communication channel is not users-friendly which should be rectified as soon as possible.

Same issue as the above posters here — attached screenshots from today below. I never subscribed to these must-read updates and when I clicked the email link to unsubscribe, I got redirected to my account page indicating I was already unsubscribed to these and all other newsletters in that list.

Hi,

Under this email address, we have no record of any emails being sent. If you are still getting the Must Read email, it could be under a different email address. Can you double check which exact address it's being sent to? You can forward a copy to me at danielh@seekingalpha.com and we can take a look.

Thanks,

Thank you for your prompt reply.  The emails are being sent to my other email address.  This is strange because 1) I am not aware of having two accounts with SA and 2) I arrive at the unsubscribe page by clicking the link from the email, so I'd expect it to send me to the unsubscription page for the correct email address.
