Hi!
I had a parcel delivered today to my address but with a different name, it wasn't signed for, he have it to me then walked off!
After locating the paperwork on the side of the box, I discovered it has my address on it but it is addressed to the old vendors, it's an m&s box with a bottle of wine and some chocolates in it with a note saying 'merry Christmas Vic and Jean from Anne' with no return address.
Anyone know what I can do? Don't know their forwarding address!
Many thanks

I'd call M&S and see if they can send someone to collect it and arrange to get in touch with the the person who purchased the gift.0

M&S should have the billing address on file may not be able to give it you for confidentiality but will be able to helpStarted comping 7/12/15

You could contact your estate agent. They will probably have their mobile number on file and may contact them for you.I Would Rather Climb A Mountain Than Crawl Into A Hole

This happened to me once before, just phone M&S and they'll deal with it somehow - with me they said to keep it as thanks for letting them know of the mistake and that they'd send out a new one to the correct address once they'd contacted whoever had originally ordered it.0

Next sent some flowers to my house by mistake (same house number but different street) so I phoned to tell them. I told them I would deliver them and did.
Next day a massive bunch of flowers from were delivered to my house with a little note thanking me for my honesty.
Chances are they'll tell you to keep them.0
