Today, I was bombarded with phone calls from debt collectors. After some investigation, it turns out my grandma, who has dementia, has been going into our mailbox and throwing away the outgoing mail because it wasn't addressed to her. I'm now apparently 3 months behind in payments. FML

First of all ... My grandma was throwing away my outgoing mail, I own rental properties and I pay with money orders so I'm always right on my bank account, a lot of my payments are the same every month I never gave it a thought to double check, cause it's like clockwork. Even had I written checks my statements come quarterly. I keep copies of my money orders thankfully. As for my grandma we didn't realize she was this bad...

How do you not realize you haven't been paying bills? Pretty sure I'd notice that I had a lot, or ANY, money in the bank.

After reading the follow up from the OP, I understood him not seeing weird things going on with his bank account, but does he not look at the bills when they come in? They would show an outstanding balance and be a red flag that something was amiss.

I think maybe you missed a part of OP's comment, OP gets statements quarterly, not everything. That's why they didn't notice the outstanding balance they thought they paid.

Not everyone is so hooked on the Internet and has time to check a bunch of different accounts if they have no reason to. Try being a little less judgmental, geez
