I'm dead but DCA please come & collect!!

[berrylover]

This has to be one of the funniest threads I have read in a while.

 

Sweepstake though, I take Robbers Way to be the next DCA to try and collect on the OP's brother's debt.

I have just discovered this thread. It would appear the DCAs have learnt nothing in the 3 years since the first post, I am sure the content will be of use to others being chased for money where the account holder has died.

DCA's will never learn CB IMHO they are staffed by

inbred offspring of those who who started the God forsaken

industry, they barely ever see the light of day and drag their

knuckles around the threatogram machines muttering arcane threats

of the havoc they can cause with a letter barely recognisable as

the English language, and chanting the mantra of WE WILL MAKE YOU

PAY over and over again.

 

Then they relax with their crayons and colouring books with a tomie tippee

cup of dandelion and burdock.

This is of course my personal considered opinion of the life

of the lesser spotted threat monkey.

They are still at it,the previous occupier of the property i live in died,the pile of mail that was here when i moved in was all marked deceased and returned to the sender.

The DCA's still write demanding the debts be repaid,i return everthing with........ deceased,dead,extinguished,no longer alive written on the envelope just incase they don't understand the meaning of deceased.

 

One stubborn DCA was demanding a copy of the death certificate,i never knew the person and in no way related to them.I put a good stash of cigarette ash in the envelope and a note quoting the local cemetery plot 42 with the number of a local psychic........they did'nt write back again.

Brilliant! I still have my grandads ashes. It would actually give me great pleasure (and him from on high) to use these...

Ive just found this thread, and it highlights the disgraceful lack of diligence of these ****.

 

What I would be inclined to do would be to say he's moved on, and give either the latitude/longitude co-ordinates of his grave (say you don't know his address) or the crematorium, or the info in the following way "C/O Plot 123/Remembrance Garden, City Council, Any Street, Town" plot 123 being the grave plot, or garden of remembrance, and the road where the cemetery is. I wouldn't point out its a cemetary. Hopefully they'll write using the address you give them and get a reply from the appropriate office. Not that it will do any good because the monkeys are de-programmed when they start work so that only basic life support functions work, conscious thought and reason is not required.

It has been reported in the past that a certain DCA actually telephoned a hospital where the person they were after was in critical care & asked the staff to pass a message on.

This happened frequently enough at the hospital that I used to work at that the Patient Support team felt the need to issue staff guidance on how to deal with the calls. We're talking probably 5 years ago?

 

Complete bottom feeders, I'm afraid.
