The Offer
Some people are seeing an excellent deal showing in Bank Amerideals on their credit/debit cards.
- Spend $15 two separate times at AT&T and get $75 back
There are actually a few varieties of this offer:
- Get $100 credit after making two $15 purchases
- Get $75 credit after making two $15 purchases (the offer shown in this post)
- Get $50 credit after making two $15 purchases
The Fine Print
- Valid in-store or online at at&t.com or over the phone
- Expires 10/17/16
- Must make two separate transactions of $15 or more on the card associated with this offer by 12/1/16 (I think that means you have to save it by 10/17 and use it by 12/1)
- The $75 cash back is earned within 30 days
Our Verdict
Pretty good timing with the impending iPhone 7 release, but the deal is great even if you no interest in anything at an AT&T store. Simply buy an accessory (charger, etc.) for $15 at an AT&T store or online at att.com (see this comment if you’re doing it online), repeat a second time, and get back $75. Net profit will be $45, plus some free accessories. Make sure to make the purchases at a corporate store, not an Authorized Retailer.
Someone mentions the idea of buying a $25 refill card from an AT&T store which would work for prepaid plans. Not sure if it’s possible to buy a gift card for a post-paid plan too.
A reader confirms that making $15 payments to your AT&T cellular bill or Uverse internet bill counts to trigger the credit.
Many people are confused as to how Bank Amerideals work for those with multiple cards in the same login. I haven’t ever used a Bank Amerideal (never any good deals for me), but my understanding is that the offer is linked to the login. You can use the offer on any card in the login, but you can not do the offer more than once (on different cards). It’s one offer total.
“If you’re doing this online, try buying a single item that costs $15 or more since AT&T sometimes splits up smaller items into separate charges.“
It this still true now?
Making Wireless bill payment online doesn’t count anymore. An agent confirmed it today as I should buy something to get the bonus.
Will try it in a corporate store and update.
Can ANYONE confirm that they did it on more than one card? when I go to preferences, it shows 3 of my accounts eligible. Can I do this on all three of them or is it only allowed for one card?
You can only do it with one card. Any card in your login.
You can use anyone of your 3 cards, but you are limit 1 offer per person.
9/12 $15 using debit card
9/12 $16 using debit card
10/19 $75 posted into checking
I used a BoA Major League Baseball card to pay my AT&T U-Verse Internet bill (which technically doesn’t meet the terms of the deal since it’s supposed to only be for AT&T Wireless). I made two payments for different amounts (both over $15) and the payments were made on different days in mid-September. I received the $75 credit this week.
The $75 shows up on my account and I went ahead and made the purchases.
Digging into the deals it says these select cards wont count:
“ATM-only cards
Credit Purchasing Card (P-Card), Travel/Corporate Card, Fleet Card
Prepaid Payroll & Incentive Card
All healthcare account products – HSA/FSA Health Reimbursement/Flexible Spending
HELOC – Home Equity Line of Credit accounts
Merrill Lynch CMA deferred debit cards
AAA credit cards
”
I used a AAA card. I will report back if I get the cash back or not.
Paid 2x $15 on AT&T U-verse internet bill on 9/12. Didn’t see anything on the website indicating that I qualified for the offer.
When I checked on it later, the offer was gone and I saw it under the expired tab. I didn’t see any indication that it was processing.
Pretty much gave up on the offer until I received an email on 10/3 saying I will be receiving cash back!
I actually did this for both me and my wife. So, I’m expecting $150 in cash back total at the end of October!
Awesome!
I made two purchases totaling $35 for AT&T on 9/13 (two iphone cases) and received a pending cash back amount of $75 on 9/27 to be paid out at end of October. This works!
I tried and it didn’t work. BoA sucks. Don’t waste your money.
I have two BOA credit cards and I did two transactions using each of them. Will I get the cash back? The cashback deal of att in my account is in “processing” status. Not sure it means only one transaction is qualified or both.
You only get 1. BoA offers are limit 1 per person, not per card.
