Had an apartment a while back, they changed owners and didn't really tell anyone until I got a note on my door saying next months rent, due in a week, can't be done online, needed to be cash check or money order or eviction process would start. What if I was out of the country or working remotely and didn't get the note? No email, no call, just note on the door.
I threw a fucking fit, this was the last straw after a parking lot flooded with gravel, moldy laundry rooms, flooded apartment. Then threaten me with eviction because of their bullshit?
I wrote up my refusal to renew then, like 2 months into a new lease. Made them reimburse me for having to get a money order (don't have checks), then began looking to buy. When renewal came up, they said I needed to renew and raised the prices. I referred them to my email and printout and told them to fuck themselves.
They tried to bill me for cleaning after I moved out, just never replied.
