Account closure impasse

I am copied by PN on all communication to my s-i-l and have today received an email which includes the following:-
"In order to allow us to fully close your account we need take a payment from you as soon as possible. To make a payment you can you call our payment line from your landline on 0800 432 0200 or 0345 140 0200 from your mobile between 7.30am and 10pm, 7 days a week.
It is important that you do this as soon as possible to prevent further recovery action being taken to recover the outstanding amount. It’s also likely that this action will lead to additional charges being applied to your account."
Nowhere does it say how much or how the charge is made up. PN's approach is Kafkaesque. They won't talk to me, I have already explained to them that she has only a pay-as-you-go mobile and that even putting aside the costs of holding in order to speak to someone she is not physically capable of holding a phone to her ear for 15 minutes let alone the 60 that it is likely to take to talk to someone.
My s-i-l has no intention of avoiding any payment lawfully due. So can PN please either write to her telling her how much (she can then send a cheque) or speak to me when I will be happy to settle the account by credit card?

It's worth noting that this account is only being closed because of Plusnet's unwillingness to co-operate in difficult circumstances when the original intention was for adagio to arrange for the Plusnet service to be moved to the care home.

She has made no complaint so far as I am aware. She just wants to find out what is owed on account closure and pay it. If someone could tell me I will pay it.
PLEASE could someone from the CRT read this thread and respond

Another 24 hours passed - surely someone has been in touch by now? I'm suspecting not as you haven't posted.

Unfortunately as the account has been closed you'd need to give us a call to make a payment.
If you give us a call and advise that you want to make a payment, the agent you speak to should be able to take a payment without DPA checks. They'll just need the username/other details to find the account.

At long last a response . Perhaps someone could email her/me detailing the outstanding charge. So far there has been no indication as to what any charge might be for.

When is Plusnet going to provide final invoice?

Looking at the account, a ticket (115085826) was created on 25/11/15 with a breakdown and total of the outstanding charges.
This ticket was also responded to, querying a letter that had been sent out previously. We then responded apologising for the letter that had been sent early with the incorrect cease date and confirmed when everything was due to be ceased.
There was also another ticket (114771898) on the account that we replied to (Also on 25/11/15) with a breakdown of the charges, the total amount outstanding and confirmation of the date the amount needed to be paid by.

I suggest you copy paste the information in to a PM.
Quote from: adagio Further stupidity - the email was sent to an account which has been closed and to which my sister-in-law no longer has access. How exactly is she expected to respond to it when she can't receive it?

If the account was not accessible, I fail to see how the customer responded to the ticket on the account that had the charges on.
I do appreciate it is no longer accessible, however the information was produced on the account while the account was open. The account was not closed until the date we had advised the amount needed to be paid by.
The best advice I can give now is:
