I have nothing but sympathy for this caller but it seems like its going to be the "highlight" of todays show and so I'm out.

2smiggy · 13-10-2023 1:57pm

feck it, I'm going to tescos for a slab of carling to prepare for the weekends rugby.

If only someone could invent a method of transmitting text with a signal.

ButtersSuki · 13-10-2023 2:02pm

My first chance to listen in weeks. Tune in, first few words I hear from KT were “your wife died from cancer”. I’m out.

Went to hossbilible on a Friday and died on a Wednesday

shearforce · 13-10-2023 2:07pm

pretty sure this topic has been covered before...I suppose a lot of spouses have died since so go with it says the producer

Multiple times before...

Busi_Girl08 · 13-10-2023 2:08pm

This just reminds me of a caller a year or 2 back who rang in on the same issue and was trying to close an account or something, and went through all the nonsense of them not understanding that the person was dead, so she opted to pretend to be him on the phone to authorise the closure of the account. She did the voice and all. Horrible that she had to do it, but I was crying laughing at the voice.

archfi · 13-10-2023 2:10pm

'I must speak to the account holder' when someone phones up to say the account holder is dead and can I arrange changing it to my name is one of the stupidest things companies can do.

Yeah, security procedures are great but surely FFS there has to be some button they can press to change the script when someone says 'me wife/husband is dead'

If {death} Do {this}

Tow · 13-10-2023 2:12pm

KT should be adding a running English translation from Kerryish.

Atlantic Dawn · 13-10-2023 2:12pm

I know it's not really the time for bargain hunting when someone doyes but when you are getting things switched over from the deceased to another family member you should look for new customer deals etc as part of the process, might as well take some bonus when it's there.

a pint of lager " down the country" is now over 6 euro. Gone up around 50 cents this year. Could the asinine MUP not have picked up the the increases.?

Atlantic Dawn · 13-10-2023 2:13pm

The OnlyFans sub so to speak.

shearforce · 13-10-2023 2:13pm

onlyfans?

100%.

"Very sorry for you loss. If you can please email/post a copy of the person's death certificate to xxx and we will get started on this as soon as possible. Once we confirm receipt of this we can get started on closure/account contact change."

Atlantic Dawn · 13-10-2023 2:13pm

His right hand palm print, lol.

shearforce · 13-10-2023 2:14pm

name the company for Gods sake

Atlantic Dawn · 13-10-2023 2:14pm

Call Masseys for a dig up.

Atlantic Dawn · 13-10-2023 2:15pm

"We will pump that in to the computer"...so to speak.

NeinNeinNein · 13-10-2023 2:15pm

That question about the bank name woke KT up.

Busi_Girl08 · 13-10-2023 2:15pm

You know there will be someone who says all the right things "I'm very sorry for your loss, my condolsences" etc, they will still probably get an earful.

zell12 · 13-10-2023 2:19pm

Deaths are a new thing

Atlantic Dawn · 13-10-2023 2:21pm

If the mortgage was just in the wifes name would she not have mortgage life cover to pay it all off in her death as a condition of her mortgage?
