Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Georgia

Renter's Rights

Currently I have been renting an apartment from a rental corporation for 5 years and recently I have started paying my rent through a rental Payment service which was referred by the leasing office. For the past two months I have been paying my rent appx twenty days before it is due. And the amounts are immediately deducted from my checking account recently I paid My Sept rent on Aug 10th and I have recieved an offer stating that a Dispossessory Warrant has been filed against me for unpaid rent now I have called the office on Sept 4th to advise that I had already paid my rent and the agent stated that all was well now as of the 17th I recvd this warant information threat. Please give me some advice I am tired of being harrassed for untrue information as far as the payments that have been made I do have copies of all payments made.
