Both $600 bonus & $10 utility bonus paid 2/19/21…ymmv on the actual date paid due to signup and monthly statement cycle delivery date. No issues with this bank ànd IMO basic requirements with ease of setup and deposits makes this a rewarding bonus for the effort.

I received the $600 bonus on Feb 22, after opening online on Oct 1, 2020. Account was flagged for review, as I forgot to unlock my credit report, unlocked, and approved Oct 5. Completely funded both accounts by Oct 15. I received a mailer with the promotion, as I live in the bank’s service area. Even made an additional $10 for 3 unique $10 bill pays to different payees. Dislike this bank. Wanted to add spouse as beneficiary, as it’s not an option when opening, and which I ended up not doing, since only way was a branch visit…during a pandemic.

False, nonexistent offer. Went through many, many steps to get to work. I was in the banking industry for 3 decades and patiently and correctly slogged through about 3 hours of various online steps. Was all approved. Then disallowed against transfer in of any funds from another bank despite long call with representative on line I was directed to call. Clearly did not want to pay bonus.

Agree that it is YMMV. I am inside their footprint, applied and went to pending for further review. A few days later Bank of West said that I must apply in one of their branch offices. From DPs here, Bank of West requests the targeted mailer to open in branch with the bonus attached.

Why do you think that, it still says in the terms “Account may be opened in a branch with a promo code provided in the mailer or opened online through bankofthewest.com/premier600”

Mailer with a promo code is needed and that sounds like it’s targeted to me.

The second half of the sentence.. “or opened online through bankofthewest.com/premier600”

I was in a branch yesterdau and told by the branch manager that you need to have received the mailer to be eligible. She even looked up my address and told me I’m not eligible.

Hi Cardi G, Were you successful applying online? Did Bank of The West confirm the bonus is attached to your account?
