Or in the case of Jason as he seems to be the only child of Tony and no other relatives have been mentioned, Jason could just take all the personal belongings and decide what to keep and sell himself, obviously he will need the death certificate and proof he is Tony's son to access any bank accounts and will probably need to involve a solicitor to be able to sell the flat
But we all know that whatever happens it won't be as it really is, don't we?

Zeedan and Alya talking and waving their paper cups so obviously not full of hot drinks around as they spoke. Those lids must be pretty sturdy.

When someone dies their bank accounts are immediately frozen until an executor is appointed.

Indeed, so not much point in mentioning death certificates, probate or solicitors etc as it will be just a case of funeral and Jason being seen with Tony's belongings which no doubt Phelan will be accused of trying to steal by Todd and then back to normal.

That would depend whether or not the bank are informed of the death or not.

Good at forging signatures are you? Can't see Tony doing on-line banking.

Didn't Tony relieve Tracy's business account of several hundreds of pounds via online banking?

Did he? Or did he just go into the bank and transfer it? Business people in Corrie are always going to see the bank manager which presumably they wouldn't do if they were banking on line.

I don't bank on line, but understand that you can't pay in cheques or cash if you do, and surely the businesses will have a lot of cash and a few cheques..

I bank online and have paid in cheques and cash so I don't know where you got that information from.

My building society tried to persaude me to change to a "higher" interest rate account (there's no such thing as high interest nowadays) on line, but said I wouldn't be able to pay in cheques, which is what I was doing, or cash because it's on line.

The only way I could see being able to do with with say Marks & Spencer on line banking would be to hand them over at a till in one of their stores.

There are online accounts which offer (slightly) better rates if all transactions are online but managing a "traditional" current account online is different - in that most transactions can be carried out online but cheques must be paid in either at a branch or by post.

Not all online banking is the same, anyway enough about online banking let's get back to corrie and the SORs.

...............He did have the right, being next of kin. The hospital would have given him Tony's belongings.

Children trump siblings, and they dont do the "legitimate" thing any more. It is all the same.
We know Tony wasnt married because he was going to marry Liz, and I think Jason would have known about other relatives. ................
He'd have to prove he was next of kin. Such as a birth certificate with Tony's name as the father. The same if he wanted any claim on the estate.

The fact that Tony was going to marry Liz (if he was) doesn't actually mean he didn't still have a living spouse. He wasn't what you'd call an honest person.

Why would Jason know about other relatives, other than the brother, who's been mentioned?

Jason is what, 40 plus? And in that time he's had contact with the man Eileen claims is his father for less than 2 years in total.

You have to go through the deceased things and list all of the assets with their value in order to get a grant of probate so that any inheritance tax can be calculated and paid before it's granted and before the executors can sell what needs to be sold and carry out what's in the person's will. With my miser FIL, his place was so bad that everything except his money and house was listed as "no value".

Before then a bank will release any money to pay for a funeral on production of a death certificate.

Has Jason registered Tony's death?
Good question and one I asked myself! There's a lot of paperwork to be done when someone dies.


Indeed, so not much point in mentioning death certificates, probate or solicitors etc as it will be just a case of funeral and Jason being seen with Tony's belongings which no doubt Phelan will be accused of trying to steal by Todd and then back to normal.
This. ^^^

At times Jason despised him. Now he's utterly OTT with weeping, wailing and blame. As someone else said - it'll be a funeral and Jason will inherit. That's just the way of soaps but a bit of realism wouldn't go amiss!

And what on earth was all that crap about a pile of bloody tea bags?

40 plus? He's nowhere near that age, he is early 30s

When we first saw that, we couldn't tell what it was, and thought it was something far less savoury!

Why has there been no mention of a funeral? Unless there has been, and I missed it. The planning of the funeral is a big deal, and it's a very expensive occasion. If Jason is meant to be Tony's heir, he would also be the one taking responsibility for the funeral, since there doesn't appear to be anyone else.

Neither could I. But then we had Jason waxing lyrical about it. It's something they both had in common. Awww. Filler. But weird filler.

A funeral?

A funeral?

Jason has to get in lots of self-indulgent going off the rails, wallowing, self pity, getting peed, throwing beer cans at walls, stomping about in general, blaming Liz McDonald and musing about a pile of used tea bags () before there's any talk of funerals! A funeral indeed. That's far too logical a step for Corrie when someone has died.
