I have confirmed it three times, and also received the email for 3 times, however the app seems to have some glitch and keep asking me to confirm, so I could not even view my renter award account number.

I have online chatted, but the agent did not help anything! Any suggestions?

Another problem is I heard new client should have 5X points promotion for the first 5 days, and people should receive notification when the card shipped. However I haven't received any txt message and email about it. The agent told me it's not for all clients, they were randomly targeted.. That's such a bummer.

5X points promo isnt guaranteed.

Also, the email generally comes the day the card is received, not shipped.

The implication of the Bilt Rewards screenshot (snip) below is that one can earn Bilt points for Lyft rides that paid for with a linked credit card, regardless of linking Bilt and Lyft accounts. In other words, with (for example) Hilton (2-3x) as the linked loyalty account in the Lyft app and a Chase card (5x until 3/25) as the default Lyft payment method, this screen shot implies that one can ALSO earn Bilt points for Lyft rides by linking the Chase card to the Bilt account.

I’m pretty sure that a triple dip like this would be well discussed here and on some of the blogs yet I haven't seen that so I think I’m missing something. Please advise. Thank you.

Winning Offer – Earn 1,000 Bilt Points when you link a card to your Bilt account

Bilt Members will earn one thousand (1,000) rewards points when you add an eligible Visa®, Mastercard®, or American Express® card to the Cards tab of the Bilt app on March 1, 2024 from 12am ET through 11:59pm PT, up to a maximum of two thousand (2,000) rewards points. An eligible card is one that has not been previously linked to your Bilt Rewards account or any Bilt Rewards account. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not earn rewards points through this offer for linking any card that has been previously linked to a Bilt Rewards account. It may take up to five (5) days for the rewards points to post to your account and be eligible to spend. Limited time offer while supplies last. Bilt reserves the right to cancel, suspend, and/or modify this offer, or any part of it, at its sole discretion.

Not bad - 2,000 points for everyone - just gotta let them see what else you're charging.

Any problems expected with deleting a card shortly after the points (for linking) post? Any T&C which specify “linked card must remain open and linked for 1 year, for 6 months, in perpetuity” ;)?

I really don't know, but I can round up four cards (inc. P2) that I basically never use that I can add - no problem there.

I’ll see your four cards and raise you a NLL Biz Plat and a NLL Biz Gold both of which haven’t been used since SUBs a year ago and both of which will (undoubtedly) be closed in month due to current pathetic retention offers ;).

Just got approved for this card - When does the email (assuming I get it- I know not guaranteed) go out about the 5x bonus points for the first 5 days? Is it when we get the physical and activate it? I was able to download the card into apply pay, so could use it now. I have a few bigger purchases coming up and I have the card number, but wanted to make sure I time it right if I get the offer.

I have seen speculation that they track the card shipment and send the email (if targeted) on delivery day.

Finally some use for the mothball fleet :)

I got my 2k. My P2 only got 1K so far. Not sure why.

I like that Bilt put the Points Activity option under the top right menu (they ALWAYS move stuff around and I'm getting really sick of it) but the strange part is that on the resulting page, they don't show you how many points you have, total.

And then if you tap View All - still no total.

There’s more than 5 (possible) questions, each person gets 5 of ~17 questions. AFAICT Reddit thread “Point Quest - March 2024” includes all questions.

Read the link 2-3 times over 3-5 minutes, maybe keep it open on a different device, do the quiz, 250 quick easy points.
