RENT: ayaw ibigay ang 1 month deposit at two months advance

Good Day

Please help

we are currently renting a house for 6k per month.
we paid 1 month deposit and 1 month advance.
we are paying monthly rent on time for 2months now
they are not issuing us a receipt of monthly rent but they issue a receipt for 2months advance and 1 month deposit.

right now we have decided to leave the house and transfer to another apartment. By the time we inform the owners that we will not pay the 1 month rent and let the advance payment consume for another month, they replied to me that we can only consume the advance payment after 1 year. and we can't refund the 1 month deposit. Should we left the huse we should pay the rent for two months.

please help. the owner of the apartment is a police from pasig.

thanks and regard

we argue to them that there is no contract but according to them it is much worst if there is written contract

if there is no contract, then it is deemed to be month to month, and they should return the deposit and advance. file a case at the bgy.
