Nearly forgot about this one. The bonus posted within a week of contacting the bank via secure message. BTW, my deposits were made via Schwab brokerage

Used regular DD for this one.
Bonus did not post for over 120 days.
I sent a SM and the bonus posted later that day.

 William Charles this appears to be active again. i’m unsure if they’ll actually honor it, though, bc the fine print does state that you have to open the account in september.

I’ve received my first statement. The bonus has yet to be awarded. The fine print states the bank has 90 days to credit the bonus. If the bonus isn’t credited after 90 days, I’ll follow Matty’s example and inquire about its status.

Opened accounts for me and P2, waited several months for the bonus to post and figured it wouldn’t. Before we closed the accounts, sent an SM saying something like “there was a bonus offer when the account was opened. I believe I have met the terms of the offer, yet the bonus has not posted. Can you check the status of the account bonus?” Both me and P2 were given the bonus after inquiring, so you might try if you have not received you bonus yet.

DP’s:

P2
Opened: 4/5
ACH Push from Fidelity Cash acct: 4/15, 5/15 ,6/15, 7/15, 8/15
Bonus Awarded: 8/16 (after inquiring)

P1
Opened: 4/31
ACH Push from Fidelity Cash acct: 5/10, 6/10, 7/10, 8/10
Bonus Awarded: 8/12 (after inquiring)

So I got microdeposits for funding, then tried to put them into the microdeposit page, which promptly errored out. Next day, I got email saying “Unfortunately, we are unable to offer you an account at this time as no valid funding account was selected at the time of your application.”

I was never paid out from the account I opened in April. I used Capitalone one bank as my DD

I just spoke to a CSR via chat. The following is what I was told, as I was blind-fishing about P2 being eligible for the bonus. May want to add this note to the post regarding

“This offer is not available to existing LegacyTexas personal checking account clients, joint signers, or those who have closed a LegacyTexas personal checking account within 12 months of opening a new account as part of this promotion. LegacyTexas also reserves the right to amend or cancel any part of this offer.”
