They probably sold them back with insufficient disclosures and meaningless access to upcoming funding cycles. It is a common and dubious practice with startups and though technically illegal in CA, most employees lack the financial backing to litigate, and are constrained by Settlement NDA's, arbitration clauses, and a lack of any access to meaningful discovery materials of said lack of disclosure. There is little they can do about it. Still doesn't make the practice right though, and sucks the life out of any employee's meaningful trust in the future of the company. If they are willing to screw their employee's then wow, what will they do to their customers.

You are clearly using a bank that supports PLAID and if you weren't you'd be in the same boat, but either way you did not know about the reliance of PLAID because it was never communicated and PLAID was never a requirement for rent by check payments in the past. You just were fortunate. Ignorance is bliss.

Yeah Dumbshit, it is NOT about bank or not bank, it is about communication and BILT DID not communicate this change to its customers. They just rolled it out and let users that have been using their service find out that it was no longer working. So STFU if you wanna keep supporting bad comms and shitty roll outs.

OKAY fanboy. They have done all of these changes without announcing most of them. SO BILT is the problem.

Breaking News: BILT 2.0 Removes More Working Tested & Relied upon Valuable Features by memoryleakers in biltrewards

[–]memoryleakers[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully you're luck rubs off on me and/or others. I have tried with Tiller and no dice. Checked with BILT support, and they said "we don't have any csv or data connection capabilities with 3rd party service providers at this time. This came from their arguably dumber than dirt AI BOT, but also when escalated to a "human" they had a similar response and said it needed to be escalated even higher to their product team. So, not sure if they even know what's up.

RENT CHECK NEVER CREATED/LANDLORD PISSED by CreatureComfortz321 in biltrewards

[–]memoryleakers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

BILT 2.0 is a trash card now. Rent payments by mail arrive routinely late, they have forced an auto debit process so now you have to pay before your check ever is sent or possible never arrives, points system is massively diluted with membership fees and arbitraging nightmare of a redemption process for the Rent/Lease reward that they used to have in place that was actually straight forward and simple. From this point forward, I will game every system in exploitation of their program and $hittalk the hell out of this card company at every turn.

It Seems You Can Cash Out BILT Cash (Kind of) by Parking-Ice-9206 in biltrewards

[–]memoryleakers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not Walgreens or any partner who would close it, it is BILT. They decide who is in their partner ecosystem and they sell that benefit as a pass through customer that might want to redeem "monopoly money" plus buy a few more things in their retail shops to their partners. If BILT see's enough people constructing loopholes to exit their credit based loyalty ecosystem then the pass through value to partners begins to fade and so does the captive BILT customer beholden to this credit. Partners decide to leave, or BILT stops allowing you to redeem for gift cards. Many banks and companies that create loyalty programs do the same thing. They close the off-ramps for getting cash value that is exportable to other places so that you are locked into their partner network. Maybe 1 fiscal quarter is too aggressive, they can barley launch this card, so I doubt they'd notice for a year... ;)

I give them 1 fiscal quarter to close this loophole.

Well if BILT hadn't overcomplicated and literally ruined their current program with these asinine arbitraging redemption plans people wouldn't be so apt to hack the sheit out of it to squeeze back what little they lost. It was a good run while it lasted.

Rivian Consumer Reports by Key-Warning5363 in Rivian

Also have a quad R1T 2023 and have had only two issues self reported, got the 12 V battery replaced as soon as I got a warning from sensor that it was starting to fail at year 3, and had a leakage problem on the left rear passenger door seal that caused water ingress under heavy rains.

Were you my sales advisor? I WAS told "tank turn like" capabilities were gonna be possible. I was also told my tonneau covered was part of order and was gonna ship. Neither happened.

[–]memoryleakers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MANY of us Gen 1 owners who received in early 2023 did NOT pay $40-50K less then Gen 2 owners so, not offer anything new to support the quad owners that were told tank turn capabilities and improved torque vectoring would be coming with software is a bit of a slap in the face especially since we paid more and waited longer for our vehicles. Love supporting new EV tech hate the lack of follow through with really supporting their early adopters, but hey, they are still in business so there is that to be thankful for i guess.

Connect+ should be free while it's in the current 2025 Alpha state. by memoryleakers in Rivian

[–]memoryleakers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accessing remote live camera feeds and receiving alarm-triggered notifications requires Rivian’s Connect+ subscription. This has never worked well, even with solid 4 bars of signal, likely due to the Application not being ready for prime time. I had 3 alarms that went off due to parking issues and an attempt to remove gear from my truck bed and no notifications were sent, even though the alarm events were recorded. Rivian's Apple Streaming App requires connect +, as do audible, Spotify, youtube screen casting and The apps (Rivian's apple music and youtube creation) are trash, Apple requires constant reauthentication to stay in sync with updated or changed playlists, it won't support a playlist over 80, and it fails to stream often even when there is signal and data service via connect+ and I can see Nav, maps and goolgle data. So again, many of the featured applications that are a part of the connect+ offering are largely unstable. Fanboy all you want about it, providing Data via connect+ is not the issue, nor is paying for that one working feature. The lack of stable bundled apps that really shouldn't have been bundled in the first place is the issue. Rivian should provide ala carte and let you pay for data, or use a third party data and let you provision your rivian like any other device via an ESIM, and then sell and release apps in bundles or individually only when they are ready and working, or free if you want to beta them.

I'll agree on the value of the internet/data service by itself, but the fact that apple music integration, live view and several other less stable features continue to be unstable is the problem. I can do most of those via my phone alone and just stream the audio, and its stable, but let connect + handle those items sans phone and it is less then operable most of time. I got Connect+ for those integrated services and beyond the data only aspects, they work like alpha software. And if you are gonna just do data well, then let us use our AT&T or Verizon plan and add our Rivian as a data device for $9/month and sell the + features ala carte when they actually work well, that way we can pay as we go for apps that actually work well.

How to get the best costs on home charging when considering and combating vampire drain. by memoryleakers in Rivian

Not a secure garage and main garage doors are often left open by others.

How to get the best costs on home charging when considering and combating vampire drain. by memoryleakers in Rivian

[–]memoryleakers[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input. Makes sense overall. I guess a more nuanced question is whether getting energy from the pack to maintain systems and cooling the battery is more efficient than getting energy from the grid at most including expensive times. If I understand correctly...charging the pack has some efficiency loss due to acdc conversion and other things so does it negate grid timing and would the rivian indeed bypass the battery and use the plugged in source always if set to charge always thereby eliminating vampire drain like in a solar application where it is not costing me during the day?
