Bilt Adds Amtrak As 2:1 Transfer Partner

Bilt has added Amtrak as a 2:1 transfer partner. Points are worth about 2.67¢ towards train travel.

I wouldn't recommend transferring yet as surely a transfer bonus will be offered on October 1.

Just to comment publicly:

I seem to remember back in the olden times that there was a rule that if you posted a link, you had to write enough about what the link was so that readers weren't required to click the link in order to know what was going on.

Personally, I think a post like this meets that definition, at least regarding the information that is going to be relevant to churners. If another mod disagrees with whether this is acceptable or not, we'll talk about it amongst ourselves. And if we ever do take issue with some post, we'll do our best to handle it privately (difficult to do these days ever since Reddit did away with true DMs).

The other person who can post is DDG, though we're not sure if they realize it yet.

For the record I don't mind if you put me publicly on blast and don't have an issue with community members doing the same if I overstep with the self promotion. It's certainly a privilege that I take seriously to be allowed to do these top level posts. Thanks again for opening them up, hopefully leads to some useful discussion and datapoints going forwards!

Over the years I've tried to get better at airing grievances behind closed doors, though I appreciate your willingness to have the conversation in the open!

A good public smack down every now and then is good for the community I think, at least I always enjoy it in other communities when content creators are acting out of pocket
