Landlord says we didn't pay rent last year?

Sounds like you may have a dodgy landlord or its a genuine mistake.

If you took money from the bank to pay the rent the bank statement will show the amount and month. You can instruct him to double check his records it will show on his own account.

Landlords CAN NOT TAKE your property without a court order.

Do you withdraw cash from the bank to buy the money order? I know that's not proof that you in fact bought a money order, but you will possibly have a date of purchase of the money order.

If you're talking about a postal money order, the post office will not replace it unless you have the receipt. Also, you don't need to show any ID to buy one, so I doubt there is any way they can confirm that you ever purchased one. Other types of money orders (such as from a bank) may work differently.

If you use a debit card to buy the money order (which is possible at the post office or a bank) then the transaction record from your bank is pretty strong evidence that you bought one.

1. They can't seize property.

2. Try going to the money order place and seeing if you can get a copy of the receipt.

i think it will help to put it in writing.

common sense is in your side

any landlord would have given you a late payment notice, etc.

fight this!

i hope you have a checking account by now and checks

I hope you kept proof of receipts
