-I was going to move into a 2 bedroom apartment with a friend
-The friend already had a one bedroom apartment in the complex we were going to move into
-The Leasing office asked him to pay a $500 transfer fee (refundable if he does not move) since he was switching apartments before his lease expired
-I decided to help my friend out and paid $300 of the transfer fee by making a money order from my bank account to the Leasing Office
-Me and my friend later got into a quarrel and decided not to move in together, we are no longer on speaking terms.
-I contacted the Leasing Office agent and was refused a refund of my money
-The leasing office claimed that they credited my $300 to my friend's account and the only way I could get my money back is by asking my friend for it.
My questions is: Will I be able to get my money back from the leasing office?
