Download a free CUB window sign and tell marketers “no thanks”

With the possible return of door-to-door marketing on the horizon, we’ve put together a free window sign for consumers to give a message to unwanted visitors. 

Download our “No Solicitors” window sign, print it out at home, and place it in your window. It’s that easy! 

Remember: you don’t have to open the door to alternative supplier sales representatives  even if they do come by your home. If you do want to find out more about their offer, don’t feel pressured into making a decision at your doorstep. Take a day or two to consider the offer, and call CUB’s Consumer Hotline (1-800-669-5556) if you have questions. 

Also, don’t give your bill or account number to a sales rep, unless you are sure you want to sign up for an offer. If an unscrupulous door-to-door sales rep gets your account number, they can sign you up for an offer without your permission—a scam called “slamming.” 

If you run into any issue with an alternative supplier that hasn’t been resolved after speaking with them, call CUB at 1-800-669-5556 to see what your options are.
