– I got a letter last Thursday from the Haslev Municipality. I saw it on the evening.
– I should call, was standing there and I was curious, because my father – who I haven’t seen in 8-10 years – live in Haslev.
– I did so on Friday morning, but the examiner was not met at work, and I got to know that she would like to ring me up on Monday exactly at 9.00.
she did, and she told me that my father was dead.
She also told me that bisættelsen was over, because they could not wait for a week or more and that the probate court had taken over.
She criticized me also that it was my fault that it has taken so much time.
so says Michael R, who has contacted the nation!/ because he is angry over the Haslev Municipality’s lengthy way to inform about the deaths. Not enough with that Michael missed his father’s funeral – no, he may lose also the inheritance, because there now is gone so long. the
nation! have asked Fax the answer, why they use B-post to the kind of letters – and the authority can help him with good advice, so he can get the inheritance. The answers you can read below. Michael’s letter thus continues:
– Now, you say that I may not be able to inherit anything at all, because the 15 days has elapsed to get the message forward.
– But I think that if the examiner had sent the message at f.ex. eboks or maybe even the victim, what it costs to send a letter by a-post, so that I could have reached it.
My wish is of course that the bankruptcy court give me the inheritance, and his estate, ie, everything is back, I want.
I have, incidentally, also does not have the address and the name of the nursing home, and they say that I get the message about a week or two.
– How is it, and therefore I contacted the newspaper, Michael.
the nation! asked on Michals behalf asked. ” why they are sent with B-post and if they have a good piece of advice, what he can do in order to get his inheritance. Their response reads:
– Michael doesn’t understand that he gets so late message about the death of his father, that he can’t reach to participate in the bisættelsen.
– But, as Michael he is born before 1960, he is not listed in the cpr-register as son of the deceased – we knew not therefore to his existence before the day before bisættelsen, where his half-sister made us aware of him.
– We came up to Michael and tried to actually send a letter through the Digital Post.
– Our letter was rejected, with the message that he is not registered as a receiver of mail from the public companies.
– We had no other options than to send the letter as the ordinary postal.
– En bisættelsen at this time has taken place – and since it really is based on the task to locate and contact the heirs – we estimate that we can send the letter as the B-post.
– Michael writes that he ‘risks losing his inheritance’,because he got a late message about the death. But he should not be worried – it doesn’t have anything on.
Faxe Municipality has had contact with the probate court in Næstved, and they confirm that in Denmark you can not lose any inheritance on the way.
– Michael is very welcome to email or call the probate court in Næstved and get the message about his father’s stay, writes Benny Agergaard
center director / director of libraries & citizen service in Faxe, but what do you say?
