"He didn't pay his rent for April" "Yeah he was f***ing dead"

Most people's response: "I'm sorry for your loss. If there's anything I can do let me know." Greg's response: "I'm sorry for my loss of April's rent. Can you console me by paying me his rent for April?"

Agreed, Greg is a real p************.

My best friend of 25 years died and his last parting joke was to die on my birthday which happens to be 10 hours from now. I miss him every day.

Is there a longer version of this call

Not sure why he would think the debt is transferable to you, the friend, but idk. Seems messy and he is entitled to what he is owed, however your dead buddy's (estate?) should handle that.

A guy I play darts with he and his ex wife were in court going over support payments, his two kids lived with him, he was feeling a little down and the kids said why not get out of the house go to the casino near us and play some slots, well off he went, he had just got to the casino when he got a phone call from the local police asking when he’d seen his ex wife last and he replied when they were last in court several days previously. They informed him she’d died well a week later her lawyer called inquiring about where to send the bill and he said here’s her forwarding address you can send it there and he gave him the address of the cemetery.

I work for a legal aid and have to deal with landlords daily. This didn't even move me. I understand it is a business but some folks really are just heartless b******s. Edit: Also sorry for your loss OP. You’re a real one for doing this for your friend and his family.

Damn this. I got a letter for council tax 8 months after my mother passed, and it was addressed to (fake name) 'Lesley Jones - DECEASED'. literally said it in bold capitals on the letter/envelope.

Oh boy, story time. My Dad passed away in 2022 of a diabetic coma. His landlord wanted 6 months rent as he had signed his contract for 12 months (he died at the 5 and a half month point). We said no, had a back and forth, turned out he wanted the 6 months AND he was still going to rent it out to someone else. Ended claiming that my Dad's appliances were actually his and wanted to keep the £1000 deposit for the damages the police had caused to the front door when trying to gain entry to the flat (which I had to pay anyway as the police billed me Dad £130 for their time of breaking the door down and stuff.) Ended up giving the guy 1 months rent and we got half the deposit because I was a uni student. My Dad's landlord for his business wanted us to keep paying rent on his shop until she found a new tenant. 2 extra months there because we had to get the stuff out and didn't have time. She turned very sour the last month because she "lives off that money." B****. Then the company that my Dad worked for said they would help us with closing the company and stuff. Nope. A week after he died they completely blanked us and gave all the data to me and expected me to refund all his customers, a 20 year old girl, I had to refund like £2500 worth of s***, I was p***ed off. So I now have 200gb of random peoples photos and data on a hard drive and I've no idea what to do with it. Pretty sure that breaks GDPR. Heard nothing from the company and they even charged ME for advertising his business and for admin fees even after he was dead. It boils my blood how dismissive and uncaring everyone was after I lost my Dad. He was incredibly kind and my best friend. Every day isn't right without him.
