Sorry if this has been addressed in a previous thread (I did an admittedly cursory search and didn't find anything on point) but, if an interviewer that you clicked with reached out to congratulate you on an offer, is it polite to inform them personally about your decision to decline the offer in addition to the recruitment people, or is that more of an annoyance than a welcome sign of courtesy?

I just did this today. The partner I spoke to seemed to appreciate the call. It's very possible you will cross paths with these people again so I figure it can't hurt.

If you really connected, I don't see it as a problem. I wouldn't do it as a matter of course, though.

I feel like it would not be polite ignoring their congratulatory email.
