Egon Schrattenholzer
Retiree — former claims examiner at an insurance company (early-retirement corridor pension) · Feldkirch, Vorarlberg (Austria)
Egon Schrattenholzer, 63, a retired claims examiner for an insurer in Feldkirch, spent forty years writing the very kind of reply letters he now receives — these days on Austria's corridor pension, with the reduction calculated to the exact figure. He knows the fine print from the inside and turns it against any institution that owes him an answer. He voices recognition only when a denial is stated openly and grounded in the exact section of law.
