This story sounds like a deja vu. almost..
My ex-wife died during surgery about 5 years ago , and for months her bank sent her credit card statement to my house, and i never really paid much attention , one day after an unusually large load of mail ( and a few drinks and free time in me ) i called up the bank and let them know they wont have much luck sending mail to a dead person .
So the guy asks me who is in charge of the estate , and i let him know that she didn't have much and there was no estate or funeral or anything like that. So then he does the same thing as above, he tells me he will have to turn the account over to a collection agency. Now she only owed about $200 and i also had her last paycheck. So i tell the guy if he wants the last paycheck he is welcome to clear the account and even keep the change, and he asks " did she sign the check ? " , im like " um no she is dead " so he tells me i can only give him the check if its signed or if i have a death certificate. I'm like look dude , im not going to go through a bunch of trouble to pay $200 a dead person owes you, just so you will stop sending me mail, if you want me to drop the check off at the bank , i will , but im not doing anything else.
So he says no he will send it to a collection agency.. Fucking idiot.. I threw the check in the garbage. This was the bank manager i might add.
