My interactions with Key XXXX Bank in XXXX New York have been quite frustrating with no definitive results to this point. As Administrator of the Estate, I began telephoning them in late XX/XX/XXXX XXXX in an attempt to close out the Certificate that recently deceased XXXX has/had with them. I have provided you with a summary below of that which has transpired thus far. Frankly, it appears to me that I am being given the " runaround. '' Initially, I was told that I only needed to send them an original death certificate. 
This was sent on XX/XX/XXXX and received on XX/XX/XXXX. I then called on XX/XX/XXXX because I had not received a check as promised. The representative named " XXXX '' to whom I spoke then told me that I needed to draft a Letter of Instructions and have it notarized. There had been absolutely no mention of a Letter of Instructions during the initial discussion that I had with the Key XXXX Bank representative in XXXX. In any case, I sent them the notarized Letter of Instructions on XX/XX/XXXX by XXXX and it was received by Key XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I have not been contacted by Key XXXX since I talked to " XXXX '' on XX/XX/XXXX. In frustration, I then called three times the week of XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX and have achieved no definitive results as to the closure of this account and the disbursement of the funds. The telephone conversation today was most upsetting because XXXX, to whom I spoke, said that they were not certain that they had the Letter of Instructions on file because no one there today had the key to the mailroom, which is where she " assumed '' the document was located.
