Yeah, I just opened the Bilt account as quick way to top off loyalty balances (especially where you can't transfer from other bank currencies, like AA, or where I'm regularly tapped out like UR-->Hyatt).

Is this possible with a card payment? I don't have a WF depository account if that matters.

ETA: Also, the WF dashboard shows that the payment posted; it's not pending. The "last payment received" date is the date of that payment and in the correct amount. The available credit just hasn't updated.
