- I received a notice with my rent statement indicating that as of the
- next rent period, only personal cheques, cashier's cheques, and money
- orders will be accepted for rent payments --- cash will no longer be
- accepted.

- Is this legal? Many of the people in my complex do not have bank
- accounts. They cash their social security cheques and pay their rents
- in cash. Forcing someone who is living on a tight budget to buy money
- orders seems unfair to me.
