Cancel your credit card before you die. It is recommended~

Family Member: 'I am calling to tell you she died back in January.'

Cit*bank: 'The account was never closed and the late fees and charges still apply.'

Family Member : 'Maybe, you should turn it over to collections.'

Cit*bank : 'Since it is two months past due, it already has been.'

Family Member : So, what will they do when they find out she is dead?'

Cit*bank: 'Either report her account to frauds division or report her to the credit bureau, maybe both!'

Family Member : 'Do you think God will be mad at her?'

Cit*bank: 'Excuse me?'

Family Member : 'Did you just get what I was telling you - the part about her being dead?'

Cit*bank : 'Sir, you'll have to speak to my supervisor.'

Supervisor gets on the phone:

Family Member : 'I'm calling to tell you, she died back in January with a $0 balance.'

Cit*bank : 'The account was never closed and late fees and charges still apply.'

Family Member : 'You mean you want to collect from her estate?'

Cit*bank : (Stammer) 'Are you her lawyer?'

Family Member : 'No, I'm her great nephew.' (Lawyer info was given)

Cit*bank: 'Could you fax us a certificate of death?'

Family Member : 'Sure.' (Fax number was given)

After they get the fax:

Cit*bank : 'Our system just isn't setup for death. I don't know what more I can do to help.'

Family Member : 'Well, if you figure it out, great! If not, you could just keep billing her. She won't care.'

Cit*bank: 'Well, the late fees and charges do still apply.' (What is wrong with these people?!?)

Family Member : 'Would you like her new billing address?'

Cit*bank : 'That might help...'

Family Member : ' Odessa MemorialCemetery, Highway 129, Plot Number 69.'

Cit*bank : 'Sir, that's a cemetery !'

Family Member : 'And what do you do with dead people on your planet??? '
