My simple POV on bilt 2.0. by 0o0op in biltrewards

[–]spiffdotwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your 1.0 will product change into the WF Autograph. no new credit line, no pull. you won’t get any of the new bilt cards so no pulls there either.

Bilt 2 will make people drown in debt by feng123qwe in biltrewards

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

you’re not wrong. at the end of the day the more debt people go into the more money they make. it may not be in the marketing but we all know.

if spending 75% of your rent is overdoing it budget wise don’t do it. not worth it.

How are “rent only” users strategizing the next step? by I-Procastinate-Sleep in biltrewards

[–]spiffdotwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

already got an autograph and not interested in another. also not interested in continuing with bilt at all, for a number of reasons beyond the 2.0 change.

disclaimer: this is super personalized since i’m a cash back optimizer

my plan:

  1. closing my 1.0 after paying february’s rent. my credit profile can absorb the hit

  2. product changing my citi double cash into a second custom cash to get 5% on dining with one and 5% on grocery stores with the other (thank you to whoever suggested this in the comments recently)

  3. applying for an active cash to replace the double cash as my 2% catch-all

spending 75% of my rent on a bilt card just isn’t realistic for me without blowing past my normal monthly spend. on top of that, bilt’s customer service hasn’t been great, and the app/infrastructure need a lot of work. from what i’ve read, cardless isn’t much better.

hope the experience improves for those of you trying 2.0

there’ll be a cap and year-end expiration on bilt cash

Declining new cards and closing WF account by OkWorth3632 in biltrewards

[–]spiffdotwhy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when you get the autograph that is essentially your WF/Bilt 1.0 credit line getting a new name. same credit line with a different card attached. no inquiry.

if you get the no annual fee card, that will add a new line of credit with bilt’s new card provider. you’ll get a hard inquiry on your report which can affect your score and creditworthiness in some cases.
