Anything with some legal binding has to have the name on the receipient on it. If the name is mis-spelt, then it has not been addressed to you.


"It was correctly addressed to my house

The residential address is irrelevant. It has to be addressed to the intended person.

Interesting update, I called AA and they said that the name that they have written on the invite is the name that the police have provided for them and that they have not made a typographical error.
Interesting as now the police have provided incorrect information to a third party..isn't that breach of information as they are giving the wrong information to a third party? Or am I wrong here.

The AA guy was adamant that they simply write down the name and details as given by the police. And he said that if the name is wrong they can refuse to allow you to take the course..as it wont match the name on your driver's licence as the name they have been given is the one that has to match the name on the driver's licence blah blah blah...he guaranteed me that this is NOT a typo and not any error made by AA.
He suggested that I contact Thames Valley Police directly and talk to them and they will rectify the situation and suggested that I do not pay for the course until I have done so.

What's that you say?

The police have got something wrong?

Well I guess there's a first time for everything.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

They could call my Phyllis and tickle my scrotum with a pink feather duster.
