How do I make a payment to Openroom to clear my rental debt owing?
Openroom does not touch any portion of the money between you and your Landlord. You need to work through it with your Landlord on the method for payment.
To pay back your rental debt owing, you would need to transfer it directly to the landlord.
Once you do that, your landlord would indicate in the system that you've paid. See the article below on how they would go about doing that.
What if my landlord didn’t update it within 72 hours of me paying?
If the landlord does not update the system within 72 hours, please contact us and we will connect with the Landlord.
If they do not respond within 5 days of us contacting them, we will do an update on your record on their behalf once we can verify you actually made a payment.
You can declare that you've made a payment by letting us know through email at [email protected]. For e-transfers, please forward us the email that indicates you have paid and the other party has accepted the payment.
Openroom’s suggestion for payment method
We highly recommend you do an e-transfer because you have a digital paper trail from your bank, your email, and it’s all verifiable when you share it with us.
Otherwise, you can send us:
- Cheque images
- Receipt from the Landlord if you paid by cash
- Bank statement verification
