Default Re: Cancel your credit cards before you die
SteveZ, what a good idea.

Actually I have a real story.
When my Dad died he had one card with a $300.00 balance. My sister the executrix of his estate payed the bill and canceled the card. We continued to receive bills for 2 months with the same situation as Samhass's story. After 6 months and interest piling up our lawyer sent the company a death certificate. Bills continued to arrive and on advise from our lawyer and we ignored them. Finally after a year the billing stopped. Go figure!!!!
Maybe I should check Dad's credit report 1rnfl 1rnfl
