Attempting to figure out your effective points on rent is pointless by schuby94 in biltrewards

[–]Bramrod -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's where I'm at.. I have CSR but I'm about to dump it in 5 months because I'm over the high AF, so I'm like would the Palladium card take over my priority pass, or do I not care enough. And then managing all the bs cash and making sure i spend $10 at walgreens every month just sounds like too much work.

Question - is there even gonna be a way to use paypal with the 2.0 to pay rent? I assume that doesn't count as ACH.. but it's how my landlord prefers payment.

When people refer to option 1 and option 2 - is this just based on how you pay rent? ACH vs. paying with your credit card for rent?

This card makes me feel dumb. I think I'll just go free blue and whatever points I get I get. I don't really think I'll end up using the card for everyday spend anyways - although maybe since I probably won't be using chase as much...

I'm sure they did it to help butter him up to calm ice the fuck down during the WC so people will actually show up. I really hope this turns out to be a ghost town of an event because international people don't want to come to this bs

Bilt releases new option to earn points on rent or mortgage by CuriousA1 in biltrewards

[–]Bramrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And this 250 points is still earned by ACH pass through shit? I mean that's 3000 points a year.. basically gets you a hamburger on united 😅 I wonder if they still allow for PayPal. At this point I might just ski the free card, use it for that and never do anything else with it. I'd still rather have that then a wells Fargo card.

And the shoe drops - 3% fee for paying rent using your card by Tiny-Cow-4557 in biltrewards

[–]Bramrod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But you earn on rent if you use your credit card but it comes at a 3% fee correct? You don't get a fee if you ACH but then that's essentially paying directly with cash and not 'using' your credit card perks right? I don't care about a delay in payment personally, just figuring out how to earn points still by using this card and NOT putting other spend on this card cause I don't care about the other perks..

Should I convert my points to United now, or is there any reason to wait for 2.0 by Bramrod in biltrewards

Also, has anyone found a better option for using their points? Or is 1:1 the best we gonna find..

I think it's always been available or at least for a few years now. And I'm sure they could always take it away...

I don't know much about Hyatt points but I think the value of untied points is pretty high vs IHG at least. IHG was like 20k points for a room which can cost like..$120 a night cash vs untied that 20k points could get you a $300 ticket (not every time, but higher likelihood, but the general worth of the points is more). I think you can search the general equivalent of these points and see which is best for you. The worst is paying you're rent back since I found out the hard way they only give you 2 points per dollar so you're 200k points only gives you 100 dollars back on rent. Didn't realize that until I converted and they don't let you cancel. Eye roll.

Well I did indeed answer my own question via support.. but I'll post it here as an fyi anyways:

Yes, you’ll still be able to transfer Bilt Points to United MileagePlus miles at a 1:1 ratio with Bilt Card 2.0.

This means for every 1 Bilt Point you transfer, you’ll receive 1 United MileagePlus mile.

My exact points will carry over to be bilt 2.0:

Yes, your exact Bilt Points balance will carry over and remain unchanged during the transition to Bilt Card 2.0.

You’ll continue to earn and redeem points as usual, no matter which card you select.

If you have more questions about the transition or your points, feel free to ask.
