Citibank's Late Fees

2008-09-04T10:14:00.000+05:00

A lady died in January, and Citibank billed her for February and March for their annual service charges on her credit card, and added late fees and interest on the monthly charge. The balance had been $0.00 when she died, but now somewhere around $60.00. A family member placed a call to Citibank and here is the exchange...]

Family Member: “I am calling to tell you she died back in January.”
Citibank: “The account was never closed and the late fees and charges still apply.”
Family Member: “Maybe, you should turn it over to collections.”
Citibank: “Since it is two months past due, it already has been.”
Family Member: “So, what will they do when they find out she is dead?”
Citibank: “Either report her account to frauds division or report her to the credit bureau, maybe both!”

Family Member: “Do you think God will be mad at her?”
Citibank: “Excuse me?”
Family Member: “Did you just get what I was telling you - the part about her being dead?”
Citibank: “Sir, you'll have to speak to my supervisor.”

Supervisor gets on the phone...

Family Member: “I'm calling to tell you, she died back in January with a $0 balance.”
Citibank: “The account was never closed and late fees and charges still apply.”
Family Member: “You mean you want to collect from her estate?”
Citibank: (Stammer) “Are you her lawyer?”
Family Member: “No, I'm her great nephew.” (Lawyer info was given)
Citibank: “Could you fax us a certificate of death?”
Family Member: “Sure...” (Fax number was given)

After they get the fax...

Citibank: “Our system just isn't setup for death. I don't know what more I can do to help.”
Family Member: “Well, if you figure it out, great! If not, you could just keep billing her. She won't care.”

Citibank: “Well, the late fees and charges do still apply.”
Family Member: “Would you like her new billing address?”
Citibank: “That might help...”
Family Member: “Odessa Memorial Cemetery , Highway 129, Plot Number 69.”
Citibank: “Sir, that's a cemetery !”
Family Member: “And what do you do with dead people on your planet?”

The Aging Explorer

2008-07-24T21:56:00.001+05:00

A young reporter went to a retirement home to interview an aged but legendary explorer. The reporter asked the old man to tell him the most frightening experience he had ever had.

The old explorer said, "Once I was hunting Bengal tigers in the jungles of India. I was on a narrow path and my faithful native gun bearer was behind me. Suddenly the largest tiger I have ever seen leaped onto the path in front of us. I turned to get my weapon only to find the native had fled. The tiger leapt toward me with a mighty ROARRRR! I soiled myself."

The reporter said, "Under those circumstances anyone would have done the same."

The old explorer said, "No, not then -- just now when I went ''''ROARRRR!''''"

Saththar was going to Hithadhoo from Male by a plane. He was alloted the middle seat of one of the 3-seats array. But as soon as the Saththar got into the plane, he sat on the window side seat which was actually for an old lady. After some time the old lady came and requested Saththar to leave the side seat. But Saththar told: "I want to see the view from the window and shall not leave".

The old lady then complained to the air hostess. The air hostess came and requested Saththar to leave that seat. But Saththar was adament and did not leave. Then the air hostess went and told the asst captain. He also came and requested, but in vain. Finally the Captain came. He whispered something in the ears of Saththar, and the he immedietly left the side seat and returned to the middle seat.

Astonished, the airhostess and the asst. captain. asked the captain what he told Saththar. Capt. replied: "nothing. I just told him that only the middle seats will go to Hithadhoo. All others will go to Kahdhoo.

A general noticed one of his soldiers behaving oddly. The soldier would pick up any piece of paper he found, frown and say: "That's not it" and put it down again. This went on for some time, until the general arranged to have the soldier psychologically tested. The psychologist concluded that the soldier was deranged, and wrote out his discharge from the army. The soldier picked it up, smiled and said: "That's it."

The Russians used a pencil.

World's funniest joke

2008-06-28T13:03:00.001+05:00

Do you know what the world's funniest joke is? In 2002 scientists carried out a study that involved millions of participants from around the world. The following joke was rated as the funniest...

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy takes out his phone and calls the emergency services.

He gasps: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator says: "Calm down, I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead." There is a silence, then a gunshot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says: "OK, now what?"

And the second place went to the following joke....

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson go on a camping trip. After a good dinner, they retire for the night, and go to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes wakes up and nudges his faithful friend. "Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see."

"I see millions and millions of stars, Holmes" exclaims Watson.

"And what do you deduce from that?"

Watson ponders for a minute.

"Well, astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets. Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo. Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three. Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow. Theologically, I can see that God is all powerful, and that we are a small and insignificant part of the universe. What does it tell you, Holmes?"

And Holmes said: “Watson, you idiot, it means that somebody stole our tent.”

Also the scientists found out that different countries prefer different types of jokes for instance the top joke for the British was...

A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus driver says: "That's the ugliest baby that I've ever seen. Ugh!" The woman goes to the rear of the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man next to her: "The driver just insulted me!" The man says: "You go right up there and tell him off – go ahead, I'll hold your monkey for you."

And for the Australians...

A woman rushed to see her doctor, looking very much worried and all strung out. She rattles off: "Doctor, take a look at me. When I woke up this morning, I looked at myself in the mirror and saw my hair all wiry and frazzled up, my skin was all wrinkled and pasty, my eyes were bloodshot and bugging out, and I had this corpse-like look on my face! What's WRONG with me, Doctor!?"

The doctor looks her over for a couple of minutes, then calmly says: "Well, I can tell you that there ain't nothing wrong with your eyesight."

''They called back".

Never try to cheat a women

A man called home to his wife and said, "Honey I have been asked to go fishing up in Canada with my boss & several of his Friends.

We'll be gone for a week. This is a good opportunity for me to get that Promotion I've been wanting, so could you please pack enough Clothes for a week and set out my rod and fishing box, we're Leaving From the office & I will swing by the house to pick my things up" "Oh! Please pack my new blue silk pajamas."

The wife thinks this sounds a bit fishy but being the good wife she is, did exactly what her husband asked.

The following Weekend he came home a little tired but otherwise looking good.
The wife welcomed him home and asked if he caught many fish?
He said, "Yes! Lots of Salmon, some Bluegill, and a few Swordfish. But why didn't you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to Do?"

You'll love the answer....

The following is a story reported few hours ago by the AFP. This might be out of topic, but this is like one of the stories that would turn up on The Onion (which would have been funny if it did:)). And we wonder why kids are stealing and killing.

...

OTTAWA (AFP) — A Canadian court has lifted a 12-year-old girl's grounding, overturning her father's punishment for disobeying his orders to stay off the Internet, his lawyer said Wednesday.

The girl had taken her father to Quebec Superior Court after he refused to allow her to go on a school trip for chatting on websites he tried to block, and then posting "inappropriate" pictures of herself online using a friend's computer.

The father's lawyer Kim Beaudoin said the disciplinary measures were for the girl's "own protection" and is appealing the ruling.

"She's a child," Beaudoin told AFP. "At her age, children test their limits and it's up to their parents to set boundaries."

"I started an appeal of the decision today to reestablish parental authority, and to ensure that this case doesn't set a precedent," she said. Otherwise, said Beaudoin, "parents are going to be walking on egg shells from now on."

"I think most children respect their parents and would never go so far as to take them to court, but it's clear that some would and we have to ask ourselves how far this will go."

According to court documents, the girl's Internet transgression was just the latest in a string of broken house rules. Even so, Justice Suzanne Tessier found her punishment too severe.

Beaudoin noted the girl used a court-appointed lawyer in her parents' 10-year custody dispute to launch her landmark case against dear old dad.

Incredible Artwork Using Eggs

2008-06-16T12:11:00.000+05:00

You thought eggs are just meant for cooking? Apparently, amazing artwork can be created using them. From this point of view, we can see that the artist had built a whole city using eggs.

But in the second picture, we can see that it is more than a city. A bird-eye view of the artwork shows that it is actually a design of a fifty Yuan note.

Isn't it amazing how the artist had used eggs to build such a marvelous piece of artwork. Who would have thought of using eggs to do that. We have seen people using poker cards or dice to do it but definitely not eggs. Now you get to see eggs in a different light.

A man ordered a soup in the restaurant but, as soon as the soup arrived, he had to go to the bathroom.

To make sure that nobody touched his soup while he is away, he wrote on a napkin: "I HAVE SPIT IN THE SOUP".

Once he returned, he found a message on the same napkin: "ME, TOO".

Goal keeper....life saver

2008-06-15T10:25:00.000+05:00

Goalkeeper Imran was walking along the street one day when he heard screams from a nearby building. He looked up to see smoke billowing from a fourth-floor window and a woman leaning out holding a baby.

"Help ! Help!" screamed the woman, "I need someone to catch my baby!"

A crowd of onlookers had gathered, but none was confident about catching a baby dropped from such a great height. then the Imran, stepped forward. "I'm the goalkeeper of Maldives National team," he called to the woman. "I'm renonwned for my safe hands. Drop the baby and I will catch it. For me, it will be just like catching a ball."

The woman agreed:"Ok, then. When I drop my baby, treat it as if you were catching a ball."

On a count of three, the woman dropped the baby. Everyone held their breath as the Imran lined himself up to catch it. There was a huge sigh of relief, followed by wild cheering as Imran caught the baby safely in his arms. Then he bounced it twice on the ground and kicked it 50 yards down the street.

Soccer Mania

Congratulations to our Gaumee Team!

Indeed last night's was an extraordinary match, our National Team got their hands on the SAFF championship trophy ... for the first time!!. They beat previous champions and tournament favourite India one goal to nil. I never thought that Muhkthar would be the one to provide the deciding goal. Fantastic!

So to celebrate our win and to celebrate the wonderful game of soccer, I present to you some favourite soccer memoirs.

First up let me share with you the world's best 5 goals. For lack of a better name lets call it the ping pong goals.

Fantastic goals for coaches and students of soccer to watch again and again

We are fortunate that last night's match didn't have to go into extra time or worse yet, penalties. Our team has a terrible record in penalty taking. However, if we do stumble upon it, it would be sensible to be prepared for it. The following videos would provide us with some valuable insight into the secret world of penalty taking

Let us first take a look at how to take the perfect penalty

Legal move?

And that's how you do it. Then again, its nothing compared to the world's best penalty. Unfortunately, the following is not on a regular match, perhaps due to its requirement for perfect delivery. This is a must see, guaranteed to send heads spinning.

Best penalty ever

And finally lets check out on goal keeping. Its the toughest job on the pitch and rarely receives any recognition, let us hope that Subrata Pal and Imran can learn some lessons from this.
