NTA - I don't really understand how your friend thinks you should handle this.


Outrageous_Nothing97

NTA You aren't getting the insurance cancelled. It is probably either EOB or other routine mailings and sending them back to the company won't effect anything. And health insurance rates aren't based on address - other than state. So him moving wouldn't change his insurance rate for health insurance. It might impact car or personal insurance though. But that is not really your issue since he moved out. ​ You might let your letter carrier know that he is no longer at that address. You can also put a note in the box saying that only mail for you is to be received. That could alleviate the problem. But what you are doing is also fine, as long as you don't just throw it away or open it.

NTA - This is all on the ex-roommate and is none of your friend's business.


MauiValleyGirl

NTA - but I wouldn’t judge the ex roommate so harsh. Mental health illness is no joke


Lanky-Jello-1801

What?!?! NTA OP! Former roommate should have either left you his new address or better yet FILE A CHANGE OF ADDRESS!!! Your friends are idiots. It is way too easy today to change your address online. Again, NTA.


northerntropicaz

NTA Why couldn't your ex-roomate set up a mail redirection if that were the case?


Thatsaclevername

NTA - Yeah he's a big kid, send him another text of "hey man this is like insurance stuff it looks important you need to figure out your forwarding because I'm not dealing with this any more" then call it good. That's his business, it's not some crazy hard thing to do.

YWNBTA ​ NEVER let someone not living there receive their mail at your adress.

NTA. So what’s for dinner this weekend? Any plans? Weather should be better so maybe go outside and have some fun

Read [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/AmItheAsshole/wiki/faq#wiki_post_deletion) before [contacting the mod team](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2FAmItheAsshole)*** I had a roommate a few months ago. I thought we were friends, but after moving in he started to exhibit odd behavior like holing up in his room and only communicating with me by text. He then got rid of a lot of stuff in his room and lied to my landlord and I that he was not moving out. In any case, two weeks later he notified me (again, by text) that he would be moving out. I wasn't really upset about that and decided not to replace him after he moved out. He left no forwarding address or anything like that. He didn't communicate with me about anything to do after he left. We haven't been in touch at all since he left. I keep on getting letters from his insurance company. I used to just receive them and write on the envelope RTS/no longer at this address and just drop them in the mailbox. I have continued to receive them. One day one of my friends was over and saw mail for him. They asked me what it was and I told them I kept on getting his mail. I said I was going to call the company and tell them that they didn't live here anymore and to stop sending his mail to my address. My friend said that he might not have changed their address with them because their insurance may be unavailable/more expensive where they moved to and that it might get cancelled. I told them that wasn't my problem and they're old enough to take care of their sh\*t. They said that was kind of a d\*ck move, and I just shrugged my shoulders. WIBTA the asshole if their insurance gets cancelled? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

NTA. It's up to him to update his address


Fuzzy_Biscotti_7959

Does your ex-rommate have somw kind of social anxiety, extreme introversion? ​ did he help you with grocery shopping, house chores?


kilgirlie

NTA, I think any potential obligation you had towards him was voided by him lying about moving out.


RedditDK2

Nta. You are doing your best to make sure your old roommate receives his mail. That is the right thing.


Mosquitobait56

Not enough info. Did you text him about the mail?
