Tax bill not paid by escrow
Our taxes are all in escrow and here we have a tax bill due 3/1 and then again 8/1 - well our 8/1 tax bill has not been paid and I have been calling for months to try and get this resolved. Finally they issued a disbursement for the tax bill 3.5 months late - and "accidently" double paid. Now they are apparently issuing a request for a refund - what, if any, legal action can I take?

As the result of a very similar experience, we do not pay our property taxes through the lender on any property.
We make a monthly payment into a trust account and pay the taxes when the come due each year. The added bonus is we get to keep the interest earned (even it it is only a whopping 2%) rather than the bank getting free use of our funds.
