    The OP's ex is using her address but he has the mail re-directed to his new address and she wants to stop him from being able to do that. She doesn't ever get her hands on his mail because it's re-directed.

    Did you bother to read the OP at all?

    Hi I am new to thisd. Wondered if anyone can help. My ex partner had his Lloyds TSB statements for a loan, credit card and current account coming to my address when we were a couple (not living together ) I allowed this as he did not want his Mum opening his post at her address ( which he used when he was in the army 2001- 2006 ). When we split in 2010, his Lloyds accounts were not being paid, he has a £1000 overdraft which he hadnt paid back as his wage was going elsewhere , a £kl loan and a £2000 credit card and he was not making any repayment, He kept saying he'd sort it , but after opening a couple , I started sending them back and writing 'not ast this address' or 'return to sender' . This mail is still coming, I have handed him a couple of letter so he can sort it but surprise surprise Im still getting them. I then rang Llolyds who said because I am not the account holder, they wont accept his new adress from me . ( Eventhough theycould then locate him and get their money back, currently £12k plus interest etc) . So since taking the loan and credit card and delving into his unplanned overdraft- theyre still sending statements and offers etc here . I have also wrote to 2 x dca's as theyve obviously bought the debt from Lloyds and are chasing him, yet again they will not discuss his account with me. What can I do about this as I dont want his debt and poor credit history affecting myself and my new partner. I have done the dissacoiation with Experian and wrote a notice of correction however , shouldnt Lloyds be glad of his new address so they can chase him for the debt, which is , after 2-3 years a considerable amount or dont they care about getting their money back ? . All advice appreciated . Thanks

    well yes I did. why do you ask?

    I am with Custardy - newbie Glamourforall at post 12 should have started a new thread instead of reviving an old one from the year 2010.
