Hi Roz,
If you look back a few posts you'll see I got one of these land registry letters, as did Mandy Bullent.
I think it's their last throw of the dice, before they give up on you. I too got the letter saying I was not a member of their holiday club anymore, (Cheers). Haven't had a Golden Sands mag since, but if I do it'll follow yours straight in to the bin.
But it's good to know we can get them off our backs.
