    The only 1 time that happened to me I was rather hungry anyway and managed to negotiate a half price deal for the food which worked out well for both parties :)

    Its a bit odd - first time it happened I assumed it was for the flat upstairs, but the name was different and they wern't even in....very odd - I live in street filled with old people so unless one of them is incredibly confused Ive no idea whats going on....I was kind of worried about the Domino's one as I order from there all the time (well once a week) was hoping they didnt 'blacklist' my address or something haha

    If you want to keep a selection of take away businesses, or are a regular of one or two. Suggest to them that you will use a code word when making orders in future, explain your address is being pranked by someone (it really isn't your fault, any takeaway would be narked, but they know its not you), maybe a code word would help both you and the food outlets in ensuring you get an order only when you order them.
