"Dear Apartment Management Team,
I hope this message finds you well. I recently moved out of my apartment on December 30th, although my lease officially ended on December 31st. I attempted to turn in my keys between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM on December 30th, but the office was closed early, likely due to the holiday schedule, as your normal hours is 5:30 PM. When I arrived, I saw a note on the door stating the office would also be closed on December 31st and January 1st.
On January 2nd, I noticed I had been charged for month-to-month rent from January 1st-3rd. That same day, I promptly came to the office to turn in my keys and explain the situation. I also have proof of calling three times prior to my move-out date to confirm holiday office hours. However, when I arrived on January 2nd, Diana refused to assist me in accepting the keys and insisted I wait 30 minutes for the manager, Ms. Melissa, to return from lunch.
When I spoke with Ms. Melissa, she assured me that, as a great tenant with an on-time payment history, the month-to-month charges would be removed. Despite this, I am still seeing the charges on my account.
In addition, I want to highlight some ongoing issues I experienced during my lease:
• When I first moved in, I was not provided mailbox keys, and I had to redirect my mail to a family member.
• The refrigerator in my unit was non-functional and caused a maggot infestation. It took an entire month to have it replaced.
• My air conditioning was also non-functional upon move-in and was only replaced after another month.
• Diana has consistently been unhelpful. For instance, I once called regarding virtual parking permits because the app wasn’t working. Diana assured me she would manually register my car, but a month later, my car was towed due to lack of registration. Despite our prior conversation, Diana would not take accountability, and I was forced to pay a $300 towing fee.
Given these ongoing issues and my attempts to turn in my keys on time, I kindly request that the month-to-month charges be removed immediately. I also suggest reviewing office communication and processes, as this experience has been frustrating and disappointing."
