Seems there's been some cases where when it comes to the pepsi voucher.

It seems to have been cases where the amount status should be corresponding with the agreed upon rents that's approved by the voucher of being honored by the amount.

That's not being honored.

It's actually not being honored by the landlord, and I wanted to know what is being done by to to fix that situation because folks are being dragged into court or be taken being taken into court for the to remain the balance.
