I couldn't close my deceased father's bank account without attending an appointment and supplying them with a notarised death certificate, costing me £25.
So I've just let the account run, the only charge is my Dads mobile phone line, which I'm keeping in case anybody tries to phone not knowing he's died.
Today I got a text on his phone saying that his account is in debit and if he doesn't take action soon, they will close the account 😂
After my mum passed away I informed the "DER" (remember them) and told them to come pick up the TV she was renting. 6 months later a debt collector showed up!!! I threw the TV at him
Be careful with that, I don't know how your system bank regulation works, but if it is regulated with fines, and they can proof that measures were not taken to close the account due to unwillingness to present death certificate, you might have further bills and a headache....
The original death certificate should be enough to close the account. A certificate one is only asked if you don't have not presented an original one.
Just put it all in bitcoin and forget about it.
If your best friend is also your probate solicitor you can't imagine the options that gives 😂
You have no idea how much power you have if you understand what the game is and how it is played.
You are sorted then.
I see and I am aware, how people in my country, that have a lot of money, have knowledge enough to go around the system and pay nothing. Unfortunately, this comes at a cost for the ones with less possibilities, that don't have accountants or solicitors, or friends, and can't go around the system, and have to pay for everyone.
It's an unfair system.
Yes, money helps and certainly boot straps the realisation to self sovereignty, but it doesn't require money to be independent.
Lawyers and accountants are generally a hinderance to independence, I only use the minimal amount of professional support.
I may have had a head start, but knowing that "they" are mostly more incompetent than you is the main awakening.
Evil "they's" like that people think the rules are there to help or that they benefit society.
