I'm not especially impressed by metal cards, but it's attractive and came in a nicely designed box. That being said I only got this card for the rent rewards: I'll get at least 32K points for that reason in the next year.
Activating the card was a pain. I called the phone number provided, which played a message saying I needed to activate online. The card wouldn't activate for some reason so I called another WF number and got transfered around a bit before someone could activate the card for me.EX 9 - 830

Congrats on your Wells Fargo Bilt Rewards Card approval.

You don't have to activate by phone, but that was the first method I tried. In the packaging underneath the card is a printed message with a phone number, a website (wellsfargo.com/confirmbilt) and a QR code. For some reason the website activation didn't work for me and I had to call the general purpose WF customer service number.

Most of the things for this card is managed online and on its phone app. You only make payment and see statement on Wells Fargo side.
This is an excellent card. It is a free card and it is even better than the $95 Chase Sapphire Preferred card. I'm going to close out CSP card.

No. It is phone app, not telephone.

I cut my CSP. Only leave one CSP in the family for transfer. BILT is the way to go. Free card. More transfer partners than Chase has.
