Couldn't afford deceased husbands acct

My husband passed away in 3/2025.  I, during mourning and out of obligation, accepted his acct but did not know it was $600ish.  I advised your customer service that there was no way I could assume that bill.  Customer service got it down to $408 which was still too high.  I turned it off and returned all the equipment associated with the account. Now, I am getting collection notices.  What can be done?
