Deceased Wife Wins £7,000 Prize from Mail-Order Company
Mail-Order Company and Unclaimed Prizes
Following the death of my wife in April last year, I was surprised to find that the mail-order company Afibel continued to send letters and sales brochures addressed to her.
Correspondence After Death
No one expects to receive mail for a loved one who has passed. As this continued, I decided to reach out to Afibel to stop the unsolicited correspondence.
Discovering the Prize
In the midst of this, I learned my late wife was potentially a winner of a £7,000 prize. This revelation raises several important considerations.
- Review of customer data retention by mail-order companies.
- Impact on bereaved families receiving unsolicited mail.
- Unclaimed prizes and their distribution methods.
Overall, this experience emphasizes the need for companies to handle sensitive information with care and to communicate any potential winnings effectively.
