Lease Buyout - Lease Company still took monthly lease payment

My auto car lease payments come out on the 13th of each month. My car lease terminated on June 13th, meaning the last payment was May 13th. We are buying out the car and have been dealing between them (US Bank) and our new loan company (BofA) for weeks going back and forth over everything that was needed. We paid $40 to overnight a check to them on June 6th for our contribution to the loan (since we're paying some) and contacted them everyday since to send a new updated loan buyout letter with the new amount for our new loan company to send a check. They finally did that on the 10th which we uploaded to our new loan company (BofA) and we signed those contracts yesterday (12th). The loan company told us they would overnight a check. Today, June 13th, we just got another payment taken out for our car lease. Is this because they haven't received the total of the buyout yet? They should be receiving that check today. Any chance of getting that money back? This really is dead money - that extra lease payment is going absolutely nowhere so I really don't want to just lose it, and our lease is up. Ugh!
