Elderly Woman Sends Brilliant Letter To Bank After They Let Her Check Bounce

Hilarious Letter from 86-Year-Old Woman to Bank Manager
A Witty Response
Elderly people may appear frail, but one should never underestimate their wit and sharpness of mind. Messing with them is not a wise move, as proven by an 86-year-old woman’s hilarious letter to a bank manager after her check bounced.

In the letter, the woman expresses gratitude to the bank manager for bouncing her check while paying her plumber. She humorously points out that it only took a few nanoseconds for her pension funds to arrive in her account and cover the check.

She humorously comments on the bank’s impersonal and overcharging practices, vowing to only deal with a flesh-and-blood person from now on. She announces that her mortgage and loan repayments will be sent by check, personally addressed to a designated bank employee.

To level the playing field, she provides a comical set of instructions for the bank manager to follow when contacting her. The instructions involve pressing different buttons to reach her in various locations, including her living room, bedroom, and even her toilet.

She concludes with a witty reminder not to make old people angry, as they don’t like being old in the first place, so it doesn’t take much to annoy them.

Let me level the playing field even further. When you call me, press buttons as follows: IMMEDIATELY AFTER DIALING, PRESS THE STAR (*) BUTTON FOR ENGLISH

#1. To make an appointment to see me

#2. To query a missing payment.

#3. To transfer the call to my living room in case I am there.

#4 To transfer the call to my bedroom in case I am sleeping.

#5. To transfer the call to my toilet in case I am attending to nature.

#6. To transfer the call to my mobile phone if I am not at home.

#7. To leave a message on my computer, a password to access my computer is required. Password will be communicated to you at a later date to that Authorized Contact mentioned earlier.

#8. To return to the main menu and to listen to options 1 through

#9. To make a general complaint or inquiry. The contact will then be put on hold, pending the attention of my automated answering service.

#10. This is a second reminder to press* for English.

The letter’s humor has brought smiles to many faces and serves as a reminder not to underestimate the wit and wisdom of the elderly.
