'' I complied, and submitted the application, however, 3 days went by and I then received a phone call from the Leasing Agent, she tells me that I did not qualify, because of something found in my husband 's background check ... ..in which she stated that she could not see any personal information on her system but for me to contact the " XXXX XXXX XXXX, she then tells me that I could not receive my deposit of {$200.00} back.
