Opened Senior Checking on 3/13/18 $1100 transfer from external account;
Zelle payments of $50 each 3/27 and 4/3;
Bonus received 6/15/18 (3 months from opening)

I admit, I almost gave up on getting this bonus. Didn’t think I had made it into the first 3500. I’m leaving the min $1000 in there to keep it fee free until September.

Closed before the 180 days and was not charged the $25.

Set balance to 0 and messaged to close the account. Could no longer log and and was sent a letter by mail that my account had been closed.

In NC, it looks like the Back to Basics account isn’t available. The fine print of the offer indicates that any checking account should trigger the bonus. To avoid fees on any non-student checking account, a $1,500 balance is needed. In my opinion, this wrinkles make the deal much less valuable, at least in NC (basically tying up $1,500 for 6 months to earn $150 when similar offers with a $200 bonus are currently available).
