Hi all,

Forgive me for being a little sparse on detail.

I have been receiving some unwanted mail. It has my name and building number on but the flat is incorrectly named.

For example the letters are addressed:

Jon Smith, Falt 76, Building 54, Town, Postcode.

Where as I live at:

Jon Smith, Flower Bridge, Building 54, Town, Postcode.

The two are as dissimilar but I do see the mail when I enter the building.

Am I legally OK to ignore it even if its important mail?

Thank you for any help, I will update this with more detail once I have a bit more legal information.

  • Who is sorting the mail? Does Royal Mail deliver to each apartment individually or does it drop a sack at Building 54 and then the building manager sort the mail?

    How do you know that there isn’t another Jon Smith at Falt (Flat) 76? What makes you think this mail is for you? How do you even know it exists? Is the mail just dumped near the door? Or can you see into someone else’s post box?
