Care home takes fees from dead woman

Care home takes fees from dead woman

"A care home took thousands of pounds from a grandmother's savings to pay for her future care – even though she was already dead.

Nearly £2,300 was taken from 88-year-old Edna Weyman's bank account days after she died, as an advance for the following month's care
".

I think the care home will have hell of a job defending this case if it ever got to court. I would say that it is an unfair contract term. The managers of the care home should be thoroughly ashamed of this conduct.
