    You failed to answer. What are you hoping to achieve? Money, an apology etc?

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

    I think you have a valid complaint, it doesn't matter that he is your husband. He could have been anyone and a lot ex-husbands have restraining orders against them

    Complain to the courier and if they reject your complaint go to the financial ombudsman

    I would like them to not share my purchase’s information with anyone else but me. It no one else’s business but mine.

    What difference would a restraining order make? Also, what on earth has this got to do with the financial ombudsman?!

    Then do what most sensible people would do and contact the company and advise them of this.

    @Still Dave you have no idea what my relationship with my husband is like. Nor did the courier. But they decided to give him personal information above my purchase.

    @Storms thanks.

    In the industry I work in I would expect to be disciplined possibly sacked for giving information about one person to anyone else, even their husband.

    So now you want the person sacked?
    Let's just jump straight to it rather then messing around - How much money would make this issue become solved?

    PS - I like the way the only person you have thanked is the one that has given you totally wrong information!
