Messing with the wrong person....

Just had to get rid of this. Yesterday morning we received a registered letter from our 'association of home owners' (luckely we don't have that anymore in 2 weeks!). The content was shocking. We live in an apartment building with hallways where everybody can come. In the hallway leading to our appartment (and leading to 2 other ones...) there has been some stains on the carpeting. Well, they are there for over 1 year now... But suddenly the 'association' has decided we made these stains (because sometimes we put some garbage outside...and that's true.... because we don't have an outside and I don't always have the possibility to walk to the containers outside, on the otherside of our parkinglot...). And now they were saying they warned us twice (HUH??? never spoken anyone). They said a neighbor had complained by letter (never got it, but they said he slipped it under our door....). And now, since we were moving, the requested our notary to keep 250 Euros as a warrant, untill we cleaned the hallway (which we didn't stain!!). And we had to do this before we were moving (well, that's in 1,5 weeks from now...) or shortly after that! I was shocked. How could they?? Just because we live there, and we are moving, we have to pay? No way!!! We are paying service costs like 140 euro's a month (and a euro is somewhat like a dollar). So much money for NOTHING down the drain. So, they are messing with the wrong people. We just called our notary and he luckely explained that the association can NOT withold any money from us at all. Only if we weren't paying, for example, our servicecosts, which we are. So the can go FT. Sorry. But i'm mad. And they are not finished with us yet. Haha, so they made a threat about that 250 euros which they cannot even do. FUN. So we will wright them a 'nice' letter back. You can guess what's in there.... So, with that of my back, I can laugh again. And i'm glad i'm a little bit smarter than they think I am...!
