Still Waiting on Countrywide…

Two days ago I told about my Mother’s travails in cashing out her CD at Countrywide Bank on November 9. The elusive check was supposedly mailed last Wednesday. She has still not received it. Meanwhile, Countrywide is still getting the use of her money (which it apparently needs), and she is not getting interest. So when you see those high rates they’re offering, calculate a haircut for “the check’s in the mail.”
