It took me SIX YEARS to sort out a situation exactly like this (lived in a college town for six months and they insisted on billing me every year after, including late feels for years). I even had a relative helping me. The relative was the TAX COLLECTOR for the town I actually lived in! At one point they couldn’t tell me what I owed and helpfully suggested I send a blank check and they’d take care of it!

Sucks, man. Hope you can get it worked out.

It was so anticlimactic. Obviously, I didn’t send them a blank check. One year while I was once again calling them to tell them I hadn’t lived there in years, the woman said she’d taken care of it. I’d heard that before. So, I was being a little sarcastic and I said, “Ok, well I’m sure I’ll talk to you again next year.” And I never had to. It finally took.
