The money is in the account. There's an API error. If you could send us your account email to [email protected] we can help your landlord get their money ASAP.

Technical hiccup with one of our APIs. Super annoying, I know.
Funds from renters we charge for rent payments are paid out from a special account only for rent payments, so we don't use that money at all. We do not dip into those funds whatsoever, under any circumstances.

Hey - I'm one of the co-founders.
If you reach out to us at [email protected] we can overnight a new check if necessary right away. We've only had 2 other reports so far of checks not going through.

RadPad - Santa Monica - Onsite
My name is Tyler and I'm one of the cofounders of RadPad.
RadPad is reimagining what it means to rent. From going through the process of finding the perfect apartment to paying rent, RadPad is focused on creating mobile experiences that make renting easier.
What sets us apart is our ability to move fast. We’re a product-focused team that obsesses over solving the challenges we all hate about renting. On our team, product, design and engineering work very closely together to build exceptional customer experiences.
We’re looking for that rare individual who is highly skilled in their abilities, wants to make a direct impact on RadPad and thrives around other intelligent, creative minded teammates.
OPENINGS: Senior Android Engineer Senior iOS Engineer Senior Front-end Engineer Senior Ruby on Rails Engineer

We're working on the ability to use your successful rent payments to contribute to your credit score, which is a huge benefit for folks like me who have no established credit in the US (or bad credit).

$4.95 to put it on your debit card though

Sometimes your paycheck doesn't arrive on time to pay your rent, and paying on a credit card to absorb the fee temporarily is a viable option for some people. Paying with a credit card also isn't a requirement...just an option :)

A lot of people find it's important to pay on a credit card especially if you're living month to month, or if you can afford to pay the fees you can get decent status with your card company.
You're totally right though, $4.95/mo is more likely to happen (or send through your bank). We have some good value add over the bank because we're in the process of letting you build your credit history with successully paid rent payments - something the banks don't offer.

I wrote a small bit here, that sums up my thoughts on the flyout navs. http://dribbble.com/shots/825365-Why-Not-to-Use-Left-Nav-Fly...
The thread on whole is worthwhile to read.
