if the landlord uses a standard Pennsylvania lease, late fees are due, without notice or demand. the lease is worded I such a way that future payments are applied to late fees prior to current rent.

I find it quite surprising that someone who has needed to pay late fees on several occasions was able to pay an extra full month's rent and not realize it.

I see where that may be confusing. it was a half months rent that was overpaid. it was 1 year into the lease when we asked to split it up a few times(hence the being late a few times, which he agreed to without an issue) we both made the payment not realizing the other did. After that everything was back on track.

Ya know, it would've been nice to have ALL the EXACT facts put out in your first post. Had you put those out, all of us would have answered you differently than we did. I was on your side, TIL NOW. Now, if you go to court, I hope you LOSE, just to give you a good lesson in life about being RESPONSIBLE.

"Now, if you go to court, I hope you LOSE!" Very unprofessional hominem response Mr. Grimm.

Not sure what i havent spelled out. I stated from the beginning there were late payments and they allowed that wit no problem. They were late in he fashion that they allowed us to split them during the month. Why does that make me a bad tenant? I always notified and asked them agead of time and got their ok before just doing it. It all went back on track and they received every amount of rent that was reauired and tbat the asked for.
