Security Deposit Nonsense :p
Ok, you remember the drama about our security deposit at the apartment, right?
Well, the bastards gave me an itemized list, which makes NO sense to me, but their total as to what we paid for our initial deposit ($700) was $200 short! I called and was confused, they told me that the $200 that is non-refundable is because $100 of each pet deposit (1 for each cat) was not ONLY non-refundable, but was not to be applied to any damage or repairs to the apartment... WHAT THE FUCK?!?!
Has *ANYONE* ever heard of this before?? I got a copy of the pet deposit (and I poured over the original lease we signed) and NOWHERE does it say anything about the $200 being not able to be used towards damage to the apartment.
ARGH. I'm writing up a letter today to give to them requesting AT LEAST the $200 back, and also citing my issues with the carpet.
