Terminate Non-Essential Mailings:

Pershing is required to forward reports to you that are generated by the companies you own. Most usually, the reports come in the familiar blue plastic wrapping.

If you prefer not to receive these non-essential mailings, there is a way to stop them. You will need Internet access and one of the mailings for each of your accounts.
