    Actually no.

    Knowing something and proving it are two different things. If the Royal Mail is willing to confirm redirection then that's one thing.

    But a judgement set aside is not nonsense!

    The OP's property would/should have received a letter advising of a redirection on the property.
    So they can actually know.

    Is it not possible to send a registered, signed for by the addressee, letter, to the place of work ?

    Technically, the correct process for serving a claim on an individual is to use their current or last known residential address - this obviously wouldn't work for you as the last known address is your property. It may or may not be successful to send the claim to their place of work, so I wouldn't risk it.

    The best way to do this properly is to use a process server - an agent who can go to the individual's place of work and ask for them at the reception desk, and then when the individual comes down the process server can hand them the claim (this is known as "personal service") and will then give you a signed certificate of service confirming that they did so. This would prevent the tenant from ever saying they didn't receive the claim. I'm not sure how much this would cost but it's probably the safest and most certain way to ensure that you get your money back.
