When I got a call from them I told them that MIL was dead, had been dead for 2 yrs, and that I'd tried to resolve it.....they told me the charges had occurred AFTER the date I said she was dead! MIL was murdered --- I sent them a death cert AND a copy of the newspaper articles............never heard from them again!!!!
