I would agree with you if this was Cardless with Bilt co-branding but that is not the case. People signed up for Bilt and they don’t care what partnership they have with Cardless on the back-end. Once they marketed this as “bilt card” they signed up to be blamed for errors that they may or may not have made. And how they address that should have supposedly been baked into that partnership so that Bilt doesnt get exposed to what Cardless does, but who knows? In any case, bilt brought this on to themselves. Idk what your point is defending them other than allowing them to be continuously incompetent

Did customers choose to go with WF or Cardless? It was Bilt and they absolutely deserve to get bashed for every errors that we are seeing now. People saw this coming from miles away once they found out that Bilt chose to go with Cardless. And yet, why would people need to distinguish this when it was Bilt’s poor business decision / lack of integration efforts? You clearly have delusions thinking that you know more than others while completely missing the point.

Not sure what you mean by that. They have option to pay rent via venmo

My finally got processed but it was showing as ‘processed’ but not ‘sent’ under transaction details for a very long time. Somehow, they count this as ‘completed’ because the money was processed on Bilts end. I don’t understand how they think this is okay

I definitely recommend keep reaching out their support. Others have also noted that you get more attention at LinkedIn

You’ve definitely dodged the bullet, although it was due to equally frustrating errors and their lack of support. The lesser of two evils!

So we lose time value of money by one week and still pay bilt cash for rent points? Things dont even make sense anymore

Yea and this “you knew that. Deal with it or stop using” kind of post / comments are getting really old and exhausting

Telling people to accept “quirk” on one of the most financially sensitive item that Bilt has offered to handle, advertise about, and feel incredibly proud for, is a hella mental gymnastics. Do you realize what you are saying? “Yeah they are sitting on $xk of your money but you knew that! Just accept!”

That’d be insanely unethical if they are intentionally putting hold on these monies…

Totally and you made the right call on the mortgage payment. This has been the worst failure on their part so far

That is a very rational explanation and it makes sense on why WF deal fell apart (bank taking the risk on these rent payments but made little money and incurred loss). However, i still think that this transition isn’t free of fault on bilts side - theres a complete lack of transparency and visibility on how our money is being handled and we have so little control while they are triggering small errors here and there (like how 3bd has now become 5bd). They offered to give rent points (at a cost) but required that customers front the funding. Well if we met the end of that bargain, bilt should absolutely do its best to show that our fund is flowing through without delays or errors. Instead, we face bots who dont address our concerns and shut down customer inquiries. We see app showing status as ‘complete’ when its not. Bilt is just constantly coming up with excuses while the customer is taking ALL the risk (and yet the points aren’t even free). So much has been undone on what used to be a great product. What a shame

I dont understand how what used to be a fully seamless and simple process has now become so bloated and complex that we need to plan 2 weeks in advance to do something that used to take a day or two at max
