Possible Bugs found
Good day. I found a possible bugs with the program.

April, my son's bank account was hacked. April 24th, the new account information was provided and a payment was made through the system using the new account. June 1st, the system accessed the old account and the property management charged me NSF and late fees. I reentered the new account information and set the next payment date to July 7th. July 1st, the system again accessed the old account information and made an unauthorized transaction and again the account from my view was showing only the new account information.

Bug #2 the system will not let me make a payment when the system thinks I have a zero balance. So even though I knew the system charged the wrong account I could not make a payment from the correct account. Due to the 4th of July holiday, I was forced to drive almost 2 hours one way to make sure the payment was made on the 5th.

Possible bug #3 on June 30th, I went online to try to make a payment, but for some reason, I was not able to.

The property management refuses to return all the NSF charges and late fee even though I have shown them the system was in error. They claim they have no control of the system and I have shown neither do I and they are forcing me to pay for the app's errors which is also showing me late on my rental history.

Since the issues seems to be software related, I am requesting that these bugs be looked into and arrangements made to clear the late payments and return of all the charges.

I have notified the property management that I am revoking the electronic pay authorization and have removed payment information from the portal.

Thank you,

Dania Mowry

We did communicate with Ms [redacted] in January and February regarding her account To accommodate Ms [redacted] 's, we ceased billing her monthly website charge and cancelled her account at the end of her subscription term She was not correct in her summation that Appfolio required a 30-day cancellation notice; it was made very clear that we require a day non-renewal notice prior to the end of her annual subscription Ms [redacted] is requesting partial credit for her final quarter (Jan-Mar) due to lack of use, however she left a voice-mail on February stating that she would like her database deactivated in days and she was in her database as recently as February We do sympathize with Ms [redacted] 's family situation and have credited her for one month (March) as she was still using the product through the month of February
