Death and taxes?
Add Citibank....bwahahahahaha! ------------------------------------------- Aunt Isabel died in July. CitiBank billed her for August and September's monthly service charge, late fees, and interest. Her "0" balance is now $60.00, so I placed a call to CitiBank: -----------------------------------------
Me: "I'm calling to tell you she died in July."
CitiBank: "The account was never closed so the charges still apply."
Me: "Maybe, you should turn it over to collection."
CitiBank: "Since it is 2 months past due, it already has been."
Me: "So, what will they do when they find out she's dead?"
CitiBank: "Either report her to the fraud division, or the credit bureau...maybe both!"
Me: "Do you think God will be mad at her?"
CitiBank: "Excuse me?"
Me: "What part of 'she died' is giving you trouble?"
CitiBank: "Sir, you'll have to speak to my supervisor!"
(Supervisor gets on the phone)
Me: "I'm calling to tell you she died in July."
CitiBank: "The account was never closed so the charges still apply."
Me: "You mean you want to collect from her estate?"
CitiBank: "(stammer)........Are you her lawyer"
Me: "Nope, just her great niece." (Lawyer info given...)
CitiBank: "Could you fax us a certificate of death?"
Me: "Sure."
( After they get the fax. )
CitiBank: "Our system isn't set up for death."
Me: "Oh?"
CitiBank: "I don't know what more I can do to help."
Me: "Well, I guess you can just keep billing her. I don't really think she'll care."
CitiBank: "You understand the late fees and charges still apply."
Me: "Okaaaay. Would you like her new billing address?"
CitiBank: "Please."
Me: "Odessa Memorial Cemetery, Hwy 129, plot number 134.
CitiBank: "Uh, mam, that's a cemetery!"
Me: "Ummmm yes. What do you do with dead people on your planet?"
