With Bilt, as soon as you make a purchase, the purchase will show as pending in the Bilt app. Within a few business days, the points will either post (if you’ve already made five transactions), or the points will show as pending, once five transactions have been made. When my points haven’t posted, what happens is that a few days after the purchase first shows up as pending, the line item just disappears completely. |

I’ve had this issue from time to time with my Bilt card, and my experience has been that if the points don’t post shortly after purchase, as is typical, they won’t post at all.

I've never had this happen with any other card, and now it's happend twice in around 6 months. I've had instances of not getting the right amount of points, but never not getting any points. |
I also have this problem, 4 charges with no points. I was told:
"We haven't received word yet, but I can confirm this is impacting transactios that occurred around March 20th (For you, these were March 18th and 19th). Once the issue has been resolved, your points will be added." Second time this has happened, first resolution was speedy and effortless with the points posting within a day of filing a complaint. This case appears to be different. If this becomes a regular occurrence, it will be difficult to justify keeping the card. |

The card is worth it to me even if the only points I get from it are my HOA fees in points. It's a free card, after all.

If they actually posted, yes. But they're not going to if it's been this long.

Two out of four missing transactions have posted for me. I sent a follow-up email to support to make sure the missing charges haven't been overlooked.

Bilt rent days
Considering maximizing spending since I recently got the card. While I will try to put some restaurant charges that day(does door dash count etc) it will mostly be non bonused spend which I’ve confirmed gets 2x. It says max 10k bonus points on the 1st of the month. So does that mean spending $10k ordinarily at 1x points would earn 20k points and that’s the max?

To my surprise, the first transaction (Subway, March 20) posted this evening. No change to the second one yet. Even if it does end up posting, this has left a very bitter taste in my mouth.

Qs about the Signup Spend Bonus
So I received the card and the offer today. Despite (or because of) a +800 credit score and lots of other cards with limits up to $30K, they assigned me a low credit limit of $10,000. So I won't be able to maximize unless I pay back the $10K immediately and they reset my limit. Others have reported they don't do that very fast. Any other DPs? And...

Pretty sure the five days (if you get it) starts the day you receive the card. No additional points for rent day. |
For me the 5 days started the day after I received the card so it was really 6 days.
