What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I had a disagreement with my kids daycare administration and decided to move my kid out of their "care". When I first signed my kid up I was told that this is a preschool and they have a 10-month program and they require checks for the 10-months upfront along with a deposit for a half month in June. As I was joining in the middle of the year (january) I only gave them January check and the deposit check. We had our dis-agreement on January 21 so I asked them to give me back my deposit and a prorated amount for the rest of January.
Today I got a letter from them stating that I should have paid all the monthly fees and then in case of termination I get back only 90% of their value back !
Meaning that I owe them 10% of all the remaining months.
That does not sound right to me and I dont remember ever signing anything like that. But they say that this is in their handbook and that by bringing my kid to them I agree to everything there. I didnt even finish a month with them.
What can I do to get my deposit back and cancel those extra charges?
If this is the wrong part of the forum please direct me to the correct one.
