Is this a GDPR breach

I want advice on how to deal with what I believe to be a GDPR breach.
I ordered a item online in my name with a card in my name. This was sent out from the company with a label addressed to me.
Today the courier sent my husband message telling him a parcel was being delivered to our address. Please note I do not share a surname my husband but even if I did I still think it’s a breach. My husband has had items delivered through this courier before but in his name.
How do I deal with and report this breach?

What are you hoping to achieve/get?
Personally I don't think it's a breach. Even if it was, would it really matter about your husband knowing a parcel was going to be delivered? What if he was in and opened the door to the courier?0 -
Ahhh. Go the extra mile.
Get somebody complaining about you.
then folks wonder why some couriers dont put much effort in.0 -
They sent a notification to someone with a different surname to me. Could have been anyone, prior resident to my home, someone I didn’t want to know about the purchase.0

sent it how?
Text to a wrong phone number?
email to the wrong address?
some other way?0 -
You "deal with it" by pointing it out to them.0

Exactly what message did your husband receive? Did it contain any personal details of yours or just that an order had been received & would be delivered x date?
Your husband seems to have a complaint for misuse of his personal data, but yours hasn't been misused and its only been an unlawful disclosure if they've disclosed personal details.You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride0 -
They sent him details through their App. Told him I was getting a delivery from a well know retailer. He has the full tracking details of my parcel.0

They must have his details from previous deliveries to our address. He last delivered from them was l long time ago.0

Amazon? Amazon logistics? or something else?0

It a courier unrelated to the store I made my purchase through.0
