collecting rent digitally through "Cozy.com"
I've read a few articles describing the benefit of using a 3rd party like "cozy.com" to collect rents from tenants...one benefit being my routing and account number aren't given to tenants for direct deposit which can evidently lead to issues down the road...however, the main benefit being that a tenant can stall an eviction by direct depositing a portion of the rent owed into my account, thereby, nullifying the eviction process and having to start over since I "accepted" partial payment. So my question is, does anyone use cozy and is it legitimate? It's asking for some very private information on-line and before I hand over debit/checking info with security codes and billing addresses I'd like to make sure folks on this forum have used it and have not gotten ripped off...thanks!!!
