@Gretchen P. there are quite a few landlord customers of erentpayment who haven't gotten their rent deposited in their bank account if it was due to them from something like Oct 1-Oct 12. It's not all landlords. Between the tenant, landlord, and erentpayment, there was also a bank and two payment processors in the ACH money chain. One of them, called echeckit, went bankrupt. When that happened, another in the chain, Check Commerce, froze 5M in money echeckit was moving. That got a lot of enrentpayments rent transfers stuck. Since then, erentpayment removed echeckit, Check Commerce, and the bank they were using for transfers from the money chain, and now only has Esquire bank in the money chain. To make the whole thing worse, erentpayment did/is doing a *horrible* job of communicating what was going on with the effected landlords.

@Bill D. Actually, on that FB group, there is help on there specifically for Wells Fargo, as well as a letter from NACHA itself (the governing body of ACH transfers) that the tenant can take with the first time they go to any bank, this has helped people tremendously. As well as many other updates such as people posting updates on their successes and with which banks, updates on the echeckit banktrupcty...

There is a FB group called erentpayment discussion group with all the updates and help to get the R10 ACH reversals to work. It's by landlords for landlords, anyone soliciting gets kicked out.

There is a Facebook group for landlords dealing with this missing rent nightmare, called erentpayment discussion group; its by landlords for landlords.  There is help there to get the banks to accept the ACH R10 reversal, as well as updates on what is going on with the root cause if this mess.

Landlords are getting their rents since the change to the new processor, but it takes a day or two longer. And of course weekends don't count.

I get the concern. I feel really uncomfortable once with alone in a house, in a bedroom with the couple near the door, never again. I use Showmojo.com now.

@Rick S. the Facebook update this morning was clear as mud. And it's now the 17th. To stop all of us thinking the worst (that you are running off to Mexico with our money) and to stop us from dropping you in advance of Nov 1st, you need to tell us who the all the banks are, which bank is causing the problem (old bank, new bank, newer bank, WITH VERIFIABLE CONTACTS), how many people out of how many are effected and why, who your lawyers are that working on this...at this point we need to be getting this verified by the banks and/or your lawyers! If I saw on the banks and/or lawyers webpages updates about this, or could talk to the lawyer or bank at a phone number I could verify, I for one would feel a lot better!!!

@Kyle J. Thanks for posting this and the update.

How did you prove that she was falsifying her bills?

What happens if she were to have gotten a new job, and you don't know where the new job is?

They could have asked for that for illegal discrimination reasons, or they could have asked because they have been lied to in the past about pets or number of people who will be living in the house.
