I pay a monthly assessment fee to my homeowners association. I always pay in person and obtain a dated receipt for my payment, but on two of the monthly statements, my payments were posted days after the dates on my receipts of payment. This resulted in being charged for a late fee on one and on the other, a lien fee was charged for recording a Lien after the I paid it (dated receipt). This can't be legal can it? Are there some kinds of laws that regulate accounting procedures to keep businesses from doing this and even profiting from this? They are refusing to correct the posted date, stated that it's their "standard accounting procedure. What are the accepted "standard accounting procedures" in this case? Thank you
