This happened to me too. We moved into a house where the old owners were in a lot of debt. They hadn't wanted to sell, but had to because they were in danger of having it repossessed. We had letters and phone calls from debt services for them so we knew they had been in trouble. Anyway, about a month after we moved in I had our first baby and then the deliveries started. Taxis, pizzas, curries etc. I was up most of the night with the baby and was not impressed at being woken at sometimes 2am by a taxi. One of them even started arguing with me and demanded payment for the curry he'd brought round, until I threatened to call the police.
It was all really horrible and I got very paranoid about what might turn up next. I did contact the takeaways and they had been given telephone numbers, but when I tried the numbers they were all fake. Each time it was a different name and a different telephone number.
Eventually I called the police and funnily enough, once the police got involved it stopped. We think they must have seen the police come round and decided to give up. At the time though it was really upsetting to think that someone who obviously knew I'd just given birth, could do this to us. We could only think it could be the previous owners who took out their resentment at having to sell on us.
I hope you solve your problems soon. It will be someone who knows your address, most likely previous tenants by what you've said. Make a note of the companies, times etc and tell Domino's to call you to check any orders to your address in future.0 -
