Has the NAS directly helped any independent adults who post on this forum?

Usually a standard response from NAS is to contact the helpline and give links. 

1. I have had responses to emails at times but others have been ignored.  They have also put me on a mailing list to which I get marketing emails, not that I mind them just it dorsnt seem an appropriate thing to do when help is requested

I have been thinking about emailing them about a question, but I really don't want to get general marketing emails...that's kind of putting me off about emailing them...and I just don't have time to call them during working hours....
