Card company was notified of the death AND a death cert. sent to them. The card company referred the debt to a collection co. Now it's with an estate collection company who is saying if there was a temp. administrator, there "had" to be an estate. In our state a temp. adminis is needed to turn the utilities off. Who are these "thugs" and what can we do?

Bear in mind that companies like these have several departments who do not seem to communicate with each other.
Keep all the details (times and names and what was said) and have a word with a journalist or two. Going to the press is a good way to force these companies to sort themselves out.

If she was truly indigent there are no assets in the estate. Unless there was a co-signer I don't see who they could collect from.

Is there anything of value in the estate? If not, tell them to sue your friend.

call your county bar association. They should be able to help you out.
Explain the facts and ask what to do.
Good luck.
