No.

Any time you received a marketing email you should be afforded a link to update your marketing preferences and also to unsubscribe from further emails. If you action these and continue to receive electronic communications then it becomes an issue but you will not be able to sue on a personal level.

A complaint could be made to your ICO who would deal with it at a corporate level.
