Is it a WF, Bilt or timing thing - paid off my balance yesterday and the available credit still shows as if I have not.
Both WF and Bilt show the same thing, 0 balance and only 1/3 of credit available.

How long has the account been open and how did you make the payment?

From the issuer's perspective they have received payment drawn on "a" bank account, but they need time for the funds to clear -and- to gain confidence that it is "your" bank account.

right... After they've connected the account via plaid via MFA and drawn the funds via ACH, they are waiting for funds to "clear". With all due respect it sounds more like It issue than "compliance".

What has other card users' experience been with balance reset on payment?

I had an existing relationship with WF but no cards currently open… and I recall it also took a few days for them to release my credit line on my Bilt card after making my first payment. Wasn’t an issue the second month.

Bilt is now doing a Rent Day where all non-rent payments are double points (dining is 6x, travel is 4x, everything else is 2x).

6x/4x/2x Hyatt isn't shabby IMO.

This is clever and unique, I like it. First Rent Day falls on this Saturday and aligns well with my plans :). And I will delay buying airfare until Saturday to capture the 4x.

Does anyone have DPs if applications for this card have been approved for non permanent residents / citizens of the US. I’ve heard Wells Fargo doesn’t approve credit cards if you’re not a citizen/PR.

I can give you a DP as a non-PR but the caveat is that I got the card before WF became the issuer.

Bilt CC aproval question
 
I just applied for a Bilt Master Card through a link provided by our Avalon Bay
community rental portal. It filled out the address information. But then
Bilt said I was only approved for $1500. So the card can't be used to
pay Boston rent obviously (maybe Bilt knows something about Boston
rents that I do not?). I logged in using a PC. Bilt then asked me
for a rental address to connect to. I entered the same address as
my apartment complex provided, but Bilt said it is not part of
its rental program. Any suggestions on what to do?

If your credit limit isn’t high enough to cover rent you can link a bank account and the rent will be debited directly from your bank account. Provided you have the card and still make the minimum monthly transactions, you’ll still get points for paying rent

Does Bilt have a customer service phone number? I am having a problem paying my
rent to Avalon Bay through the Biltprotect portal to get the points. Problem is that the
app instructions are some how wrong for my account so it does not give me any
routing number and account number to pay to get points. I could not find any
phone number on the Bilt web site or Android App. I filed a chat request but
got a we are reviewing it email reply. Problem is that I am going to a conference
(flying) to UK Saturday.

Would appreciate updated comments/reviews/status reports for this card re:

- Does a successful Bilt Mastercard application (approval) count toward Chase’s 5/24?

- Previous report(s) here of delayed or missing paper checks sent for rent payment, is that still a problem?

- Can Bilt be used successfully to pay condominium monthly/common/maintenance charges?

- Can Bilt be used successfully to pay mortgage payments?

Thank you.
