I got a notice from the landlord that they did not receive my January rent...because they have a new mailing address...and didn't tell anyone.
So I have to send another check, and there's a $20 fee for stop payment on the old check which never came back. I sent the following email to the landlord:
Hi Robert,
I'm resending my rent check to the correct address, but would like to deduct the $20 fee for stop payment on the check that went to the old address, since I wasn't informed of the change. Im sending the full amoount for January, but would like to deduct it from the February rent, and will send proof of stop payment with it.
Fair?
I hope this email finds you well, and happy new year to you and yours.
Sincerely,
Me
I mean, they can't friggin argue, right?
