Not trying to be judgmental (though it probably sounds as if I am), just wondering where the "line in the sand" is drawn.....and where the USPS draws that same line.
No it doesn't bother me at all as it was addressed to what is now my company. As Synzero says, what if it was a bill? Some companies take longer to register a business take over, but I am still liable to pay for bills/services even though they have the previous owners name. I can't even see how you try to compare it to stealing mail from someone, as it was addressed to what is now my company.
Anyway, as I was approved for the card Chase obviously wanted to offer the card to the business, regardless of the name on the envelope. If it truly was a personal offer my application would have been denied.
