Thanks updated.
I opened account and I don’t live in Sun Prairie… Anyone know if Amazon would count as “Signature based transaction” if I process it as CC (uncheck the debit box)?
It’s a soft pull. Just opened the account today and it only took 20 minutes. Thank you!
Hi AWP, do you think they would care at all if I don’t live in Sun Prarie? I live in downtown Madison, and I can’t think of any plausible reason I would open an account in Sun Prarie, but I’d like to take advantage of the bonus. Thanks!
Hey Mike, I live in Fitchburg, but I just said that I work near East Towne Mall and shop at the Costco in Sun Prairie and they didn’t care at all. I think they knew I was there just for the signup bonus, but they were really nice and the whole thing.
It only took about 10 minutes with an appointment.
