I've just received a letter through the Post from Corgi, addressed to the Alpha Boiler Owner, trying to sell me boiler home care plan. Does nobody tell these people that properties like mine are not owned but rented through either councils or housing associations, think there may be a hint when they are reaming out these letters to nearly every house on Mallard Place, who all had these boilers fitted at the same time and are maintain yearly by the council or Association, surely a red light would flash even with computer generated mail
