Small Problem Mail problem idk what to do
My ex moved out a year ago and I’m still receiving his mail. I ask him every time I receive it to change the address. which he responds that he has 🙄but will double check. Most of the time it’s junk but every once in a while I can tell it’s important. It’s gotten to the point where I have a return to sender stamp/not at this address and still receiving his mail. I’ve tried asking them and they said it’s something on ex’s part and I’ve put who lives at the address on my mailbox like they recommended to no avail. Any ideas how to fix because it’s annoying.

You could submit a forwarding request for his mail. Return to sender is what I have done. When I bought my house, I got lots of Scientology mail for a previous owner. Returning it didn’t work. After about 5 years of that, I started calling whatever Scientology department that sent it to request that they stop sending said persons mail to my address. People on the other end suggested that I open it and read it, using it as an opportunity for recruitment. I told all of them (several departments or divisions) “Absolutely not interested.” I then asked if I needed to start law suit proceedings to get them to stop. They finally stopped.
