- Hang on, if I remeber right, a few years ago on a programme called Watchdog - A woman who was a customer with British Gas or BT died - they kept billing her even the daughter paid off the account and after countless phone calls eneded up writing a letter to them saying something along the lines of:

My account has been paid in full by my daughter after my death. Please forgive me for not being able to speak to you in person as I havent quite got the hang of forming into a ghost yet.

I can assure you I am no longer in need for your sevices so I would apreciate if you left both me and my daughter to rest in peace.

They got the message after the programe was aired.
