    I had one from them addressed to "The Home Owner" and it resides in File 13.

    Yes, mine was also addressed to 'Home Owner'
    What I find 'offensive'- not sure if that is quite the correct word- is that they are hiding behind a well respected firm!
    and what is FIle 13??? obviously not a good place to be dumped!!
