O'Fallon Lakes

On 10-10-14 we bought a $935 money order at Walmart to

pay our rent for the month, I sent my 14yr old son to the rent office with the money order to give to them, he handed the money order over to a one of the office workers named Leah, when he got back I asked and made sure he turned it in, which he did. 3 weeks later we received a notice from the sheriff stating that we never paid rent for the month and we have to go to court for unpaid rent, which we know for sure we did pay like we've done every month for the 3yrs we've lived there. So me, my wife and son immediately go down to the rent office to see what in the hell is going on and we talk to the girl Leah and she is just sitting there saying she don't remember my son giving it to her after 3 weeks, she looked as if she didn't care if we paid or not and it made me very very angry, there have been several other similar incidents with that rent office losing tenants rental payments plus they do not give receipts when you pay rent which is unheard of and not good for business, now we're in court paying more than double of wat our rent is, the rental office never sent a late notice, they never called us, no indication that our rent wasn't paid, the only indication we had was the sheriff showing up at our door to go to court and being sued by ofallon lakes apts. We've lived there for 3 yrs, never once did we miss a payment, NEVER, now its on our credit and we are paying huge amounts for something that was totally not our fault and its not right at all, I can't believe they aren't accepting any responsibility for mishandling and losing tenants rent payment and not even notifying them about it, God knows we paid that rent and i can't believe this is all on me and my family, its like being charged for a crime you know u never committed, someone please help us...
