OK, I'm ready to spit nails and I can hear whomever is reading this saying to yourselves, "What -- Tia is going to post a long rant? How very unusual"! As some of you might remember, my father passed away in early August. I'm not doing so well dealing with his death and all the paperwork crap I am having to wade through to get stuff settled because I am his Executor. I am a signer on his checking account and the little money he had in there was his Social Security deposit and the money MediCare sends him so he can pay Mayo Clinic (DO NOT get me started on those F*#$(*$ anal orifices). Anyway, I called and canceled his credit cards by the middle of August. The Visa card person I spoke with said I should just write on his statement that he had no estate or assets and send it back to them. I did this on about 20 August. Yesterday I get a letter AND some court papers from these Visa DI*KWADS telling me how sorry they are that my father has passed away and when am I going to send them the $600+ dollars outstanding on my father's account!! Excuse my profanity but I DO NOT NEED THIS SHIT! Enclosed with this lovely letter -- which by the way also said I should sent them the name, etc. of the attorney who is handling my father's estate -- enclosed is also a court document to be used so they can take legal action to get their &#$*&$#^$% $600 back! I am not a happy camper nor am I terribly emotionally stable right now (probably why I went on so long kvetching about the whole hunting thing which I KNEW better than to do -- VBS -- sorry to everyone about that but there have been some extenuating circumstances). Anyway, I phone the *%#*(%^ credit card company yet again to tell them that if there is any change left after I send Social Security back their money and I pay the idiots at Mayo their Medicare money, I'll be happy to send Visa a check for whatever is left! By this time I am in tears I am so freaking pissed off. Georgia -- the woman I am...
