    I have never had to show ID at the sorting office to collect a parcel. I have even gone in there without an attempted delivery card and just given them my name and been given my mail. I realise it may be different for some people though.

    Deffo seems to depend where you live, when I lived in London there was no way I could get a parcel etc from the sorting office without ID and the collection card - it would always be checked and the queues were generally mega. I now live in a small town and they never ask for ID and looked at me like I was weird when I turned up the first time with ID clutched in paw to collect an item.

    i don't think you should worry too much about it to be honest.

    What is she going to do? Come round and throw a panacake in your face?
  • I think it's sorted itself out now - I bought something this morning and saw that the delivery address had defaulted Caroline [maiden-name].

    I take it all back - boxes arrived this morning addressed to Caroline [married name]! :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

    I just don't know where the old name is coming from - all my names and delivery addresses in both Paypal and eBay are now set to the correct name, the old one doesn't appear on screen ANYWHERE. It must be in a background database somewhere, very, very annoying.
