4. PIMS PRACTICAL INSIGHT
This is one of those documents that:
?? looks harmless but can lose a case
________________________________________
In real life:
Tenants (or councils) use receipts to argue:
• illegal fees charged
• rent taken early
• unlawful deposit handling
________________________________________
This version protects you by saying:
“this is a record — not proof the payment was lawful”
That’s very important.
