Cancelled delivery but they still delivered

Hi. 
We bought a sofa from Harvey’s in February 2020. Since then we had the pandemic and also Harvey’s went bust. After numerous phone calls
and countless times they said they’d still deliver before Xmas we got fed up and cancelled. We received a full refund of the money we paid them on the 14th January 2021. On the 26th jan they delivered the sofa to our amazement. However, we’ve record a letter from benson fo beds ( they’ve taken all of Harvey’s accounts over) saying we owe them the money for the sofa.... 
we cancelled 
received refund 
THEY DELIVERED STILL. 

where do we stand on this??? 
Many thanks

    yes. We received a refund and 1 week later they delivered. They just turned up at 7:30am with the sofa while I was at work and the wife still in bed.

    I suggest you contact them to get them to pick up their sofa then.  Or pay them for it.

    Did you really think they were just giving you a free sofa?

    Then quite clearly you owe the money for the sofa, or are you expecting to get away with it and keep the sofa for free?

    I do enjoy reading these types of threads on here. OP - if the answer you're looking for is ''yes, you get a free sofa'', I'm sorry to dissapoint you...

    If you didn't refuse the delivery of the sofa, you accepted it. Along with the cost.  I'd be counting my blessings I got the sofa I ordered under such conditions - you must have liked it to order it.  I hope you are enjoying such a pleasant surprise, sometimes things do work out, thank goodness. 

    But I am sorry, you do need to pay for it..
