I've owned and lived in my house for over two years and have received a fair amount of mail for the previous owner. For a while, fine, back in the box, rts.
But, increasingly I've realised he is using my address as his own still. Some months ago he re-taxed his van to this address. Since then, I've started opening letters and have called companies etc but it hasn't stopped. I have had savings accounts, credit cards, statements, all sorts.
This morning I received a letter thanking him for opening a new store card and asking him to sign and return the application form. This is totally taking the piss, it's fraud surely!?
There is a 'previous address' which I think is probably his current one on this application form, and what is probably a current phone number. I called the new card company but was yet again fobbed off telling me to return to sender.
So, how do I stop him doing this? It is infuriating and I'm worried about him using my address in this way.
