A hostel company I stayed with a while back emailed me with the subject: “Your booking is confirmed!”. This made me frantically check all my accounts since I hadn’t booked any hostels recently. I was super concerned until I opened the email and saw… it was a stupid marketing email…

This kind of marketing should be illegal. Don’t use Clink Hostels.

    This is like how in recent months I’ve been receiving “your account will be shut down” messages from services I’ve been using for literal decades, simply because I only use them 2-3 times a year, when they are actually useful to me, rather than regard them as some sort of social media platform.

    It’s super pathetic attention whoring by companies that lost any sense of what value they bring to their customers.
