I just got a call from Good Sister. Even though she, like me, was told in writing that she needed a version of Mom's death certificate with the cause of death and even though the certificate still hasn't reached her two weeks after she requested it, she, like Evil Sister, has gotten (some of?) her money.
What did they both do to deserve their money that I didn't, you ask? Apparently, they both asked for a live check. I asked for an electronic transfer, like someone born after World War II.
This isn't avarice or malice. This is pure Muppetry.
Good Sister graciously offered to request the necessary death certificate through an alternative channel (There's an alternative channel?!) on my behalf, because where the state of Florida is involved we don't trust bureaucrats not to screw a trans person if they sniff one out.
Updated to add: I asked GS if I should just call the investment company and ask for a paper check, and she said no. My sisters only got their money because of "a crack in their system", and alerting the company to that crack won't convince them to let me through it. If anyone knows this stuff by now, it's Good Sister. Le sigh.
