  • The applicant might also just leave required fields blank and forget to check the page for errors before trying to click to the next page.

    • They should check to make sure they aren't leaving required fields blank.


The Prospect uses invalid payment information

  • If your applicant enters their payment information incorrectly, their payment won't process and they won't be able to submit a rental application.

    • They should make sure they are entering correct information for their credit card when paying for the rental application.


The Prospect has general computer, phone, or internet issues

  • Unfortunately, if the applicant has general computer, phone, or internet connection problems, they might not be able to submit a rental application.

    • They should try a different device or find a location with a better internet connection and try to submit their rental application again.
