Q3. Why do you need my credit card information to start the free trial?

We understand your hesitation in sharing your credit card information.
However, in order to join the Free Trial promotion, your credit card is needed for two reasons:
  1. First, for security reasons. Since a free tenant screen is included in the “limited free trial” a credit card helps confirm your identity. This is necessary for the compliance issues associated with tenant screens.
  2. Second, for your convenience. By providing your credit card up front, you can be assured and do not have to worry that your Premium Membership stops at the end of the free trial period.
Of course, if you do not want to continue you Premium Membership, feel free to call us at 866.931.9418, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central Standard Time.

Q5. I left my Tenant Screening process mid way and now my link is not available.

If you leave the tenant screening process midway then it shows as used under your account. However the tenant screen is reflected back under your account in less then 30 minutes. This happens because the server needs to make sure that the tenant screening application has not been used completely.

If you still have further questions, please contact CompleteLandlord.com customer service at 866.931.9418 or send an email to customerservice@completelandlord.com
