A pensioner who was told he was dead has been issued an apology by his local council, who sent the gentleman a letter explaining he had passed away.
Not only that, but they also told him how, bizarrely, he could get a tax exemption now that he was six feet under. And all of this a month after his wife of 54 years, Ann, had died, reports the Mirror.
South Norfolk Council were forced to send Stuart Dobson, 77, a grovelling letter of apology, admitting that it was “human error”. This after Mr Dobson had responded to their communication, telling them he was very much alive, but now very “distressed”.
