Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

I live in a condo association which in the past honored a 15 day grace period for making monthly assessment payments - in person, via mail and online. A new management company was hired which only allows mailed checks and online payments that need to be received and processed internally by the 15th. They claim it takes 3-5 days to process internally - which was disputed when my the bank showed that payments crossed in less than 36 hours. The new management company has disabled my ability to pay online on 9/14/18 (ongoing) so that I cannot mail or pay online without incurring a late fee - which would not have happened had I been allowed to pay before 8 p.m. on 9/14/18. Additionally there is a 6-8 month dispute re using fines to drive their revenue.
Is there any case law that protects my ability to pay up until the end of the grace period - or penalizes the company for shortening the grace period by insisting the money be collected by the 15th? Any other thoughts welcome.

These consequences need to be set forth in the rules. Someone needs to check the rules first.
