An unknown company delivered an item to you that you did not order

 

You receive a surprise gift in the mail. You are asked to pay the amount of the invoice attached to the package. This is a forced shipment, a prohibited practice, according to article R. 635-2 of the Penal Code. If you are a victim, do not pay. Send a registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt to the sender stating that you have not ordered anything from him and that you have the item received at his disposal.

 

This practice is regulated (article L. 122-3 of the Consumer Code): any professional who has provided you with goods or services without your express and prior commitment will be required, at your request, to return the amount used to you. without your agreement, increased by the legal interest rate from the date of payment, the rate itself increased by half from the date of the reimbursement request.

 

Thus, if your bank makes you automatically subscribe to a financial product or if an insurance company awards you an assistance contract without your prior agreement, ask it to reimburse you for the sums paid increased by the legal interest rate.

 

recommended letter with receipt note

 

Dear,

 

You sent me a (indicate the nature of the object: book, CD…) that I never ordered. I will therefore not follow up on your request for payment.

 

I remind you that article R. 635-2 of the Penal Code sanctions this practice, and I will not fail to file a complaint against you if you annoy me again for the payment of this object, which I would also like to your disposition.

 

Please accept, Madam, Sir, the expression of my best regards.
