If you know ahead of time that you will not have the necessary funds in your bank account on your scheduled debit day, you have the option to do a block. A block is a one-time request to not debit your account for that payment period. Your bank account will not be debited, and you will need to make arrangements to pay your landlord directly for that payment period. Your online rent payments<\/a> will automatically resume for the next payment period. The deadline to request a block is always one banking day prior to the debit day before 12:00pm (noon) ET. Both you and your landlord may request the block or either of you can log into<\/a> your respective ClearNow accounts and block the debit yourselves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
