joel b<p>Just got a very short email from AppFolio, a portal my landlord uses to accept rent, warning me:</p><p>“Beginning at 12:00 am PST on 07/31/2023, AppFolio will no longer waive the transaction fee for payments made by eCheck. All eCheck payments moving forward will have a $2.49 AppFolio transaction fee”</p><p>Since there appears to be no way avoid this fee I believe this qualifies as an illegal rent hike prohibited by Seattle municipal code 7.24.030.</p><p><a href="https://library.municode.com/wa/seattle/codes/municipal_code?nodeId=TIT7COPR_CH7.24REAGRE_7.24.030REAGRE" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://library.municode.com/wa/seattle/codes/municipal_code?nodeId=TIT7COPR_CH7.24REAGRE_7.24.030REAGRE</a></p><p>Does anyone else know about this or have you experienced something similar?</p><p>Please boost for reach.</p><p><a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/pwn" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PWN</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/seattle" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Seattle</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/rentersrights" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RentersRights</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/tenants" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Tenants</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/tenantsrights" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TenantsRights</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/legalhelp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LegalHelp</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/rent" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Rent</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://social.tummyacid.net/tag/appfolio" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AppFolio</a></p>
