What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Indiana
I moved in this 3 bd apartment in August. I was late this month on rent, I called them on the 1st and told them I would be about 15 days late and I would pay the $5 a day fee. So on the 14th I wrote them a check for the amount with fees, the manager called and said after the 10th they can't accept a check, they needed a money order, also told me I had a $208 credit b/c they are connected w/ the hospital I work for and on the 3rd month I receive a $250 credit, and I had 208 left, so on the evening of the 18th I dropped of a money order for the rent plus late fees minus the 208 credit. I guess the 18th AM they turned it to their attny who files stuff w/ courts. I got a letter from them on the 20th and it stated the amount due was the exact amount I paid. I figured since they filed in the AM and I paid in the PM it wouldn't matter, but I called them. The girl there said she didn't really know b/c the manager takes care of it. Then on the 21st I got a letter from the apt. manager dated the 19th saying she received my money order but there was 208 missing and if i paid it before court date it would be dropped. So I called again yesterday, manager not there, but she said that on my acct. it shows a 17.00 balance not 208, but to call back Monday.
this evening a dept collector gave me a paper, says at top "summons and notification of claim for possession of real estate" Date of 12/3 at 1pm. I called the office again, she told me to again call back Monday, but that she assumed to disregard it since I already paid.
If they accepted and cashed the money order and I have the letter stating that was the amount owed by the attny. am I okay? I'm making myself sick with worry.
My husband isn't pay support and I'm working for 12 crappy bucks an hour, not making it...
