They ripped me off my rent money on CHRISTMAS

Old, moldy,,,expensive for what you get, infisted with bugs and roaches , and the staff is mean and uncooperative. Around christmas time of 2007, I put my rent (money order) in the rent box assuming that management will pick it up the next day with no problems, to my surprise, I get a fax at work the next day stating that I needed to pay rent, I remebered that I forgot to put my name on the money order, I only put the apartment number and made it payable to the apartments, it was also around christmas time like I mentioned before (when most people need money badly) ....imeadiately it clicked on my mind that some one from management could have possibly put their name as a purchaser and cashed the money order to their pocket..
I am convinced that this is exactly what happened. Managment was uncooperative and extremely rude with me as I was explaining my situation to them, they even charged me a late fee of $25, One of the management staff -w/out mentioning names- made it seem like I made up the story or something. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE...FIND ANOTHER ONE FOR YOUR SAKE

We are extremely sorry for your unfortunate situation. I know for a fact that no employee of Driftwood cashed the money order. After the money order company does the research, you will find this out. There are a number of things that could have happened to your money order. We are not responsible for the rent until it is in our hands. The drop box is used as a convenience for those who can not make it during business hours. A large percent of the residents use the drop box. We apologize if you felt slighted by the Driftwood Management. December is a busy month, especially with tracking down rent for the month due to the expenses people incur from holiday spending.
