I accidentally published this early, oops! I’ll repost this at the end of the month and readers listed will all receive a $10 Amazon gift card to say thank you.
Deals
- DH7 shared how to get the Sprint first year free deal for a second year. Followed up that effort by answering questions in comments, these are the types of contributions I am so very grateful for.
Bank Bonuses
- Vik sharing that the Woori bank bonus worked outside of just NY. Sometimes it’s not entirely clear what branches a bonus does/doesn’t work for. I really appreciate people going into their local branch and checking.
- Yet Another Redditor. Yet another datapoint (see what I did there?) of the Woori bank working outside of NY, along with the fact it’s a soft pull and how strict they are with the direct deposit
- Jenn giving us all the pertinent details for First Home Bank. Soft pull. $1,500 credit card funding. Out of state application worked. bang bang bang!
- Maggie letting us know that the Valley National Bank bonus is also available in Alabama.
- Payyououttuesday sharing experiences opening First National Bank in branch and also letting us know the early account termination fee. Really appreciate people updating me on the early account termination fees as they are often not listed online.
- JuicyJosh sharing that out of state applications work. Unfortunately his account was then refunded and account not opened. I feel like Josh is always testing the boundaries and being the DP they want to see.
- DFG letting us know the MidFirst bank offer is also available in AZ for $200. Another state eligible and a bigger bonus.
- Jason letting us know it’s a soft pull and the business documents required for this California business deal.
- Ann for continuously keeping us updated with new bank APY interest rates. Things like this really are what makes this site possible.
- Dan – Legal Bank Robber letting us know how to keep the bonus and close Five Star Bank account quicker to help churn the bonus.
- Aleks letting us know the Rockland Trust bank offer is actually available in:Â MA, VT, RI, ME, NH, CT.
Misc
- Peter with a witty one liner.
- David shares the power of status matching in Atlantic City. Not a bad haul at all.
- Brian shares his weekend of status matching in Atlantic city.
- Rene sharing details on how badly the Exxon Mobil new rewards program launch was going.
truly honored, best site around. Will post a pic once I print and frame the shout-out.
William Charles , thanks for choosing me this month! Just wondering….where/how should i be expecting to receive the $10 gift card? I certainly didn’t contribute on the basis of planning to receive it. But since you are offering….I thought i would follow-up since i have not received anything.
Thanks!
Check your e-mails, should have received one regarding this bonus
Thank you!
Ive been a loyal follower for a while and I NEVER even knew about this! smh, I may have to stop being a quiet lurker..
Thank you for the splendiferous recognition! 🙂
William Charles,
I looked at JuicyJosh’s comment and he clearly wrote that out of state does not work as he was refunded by check and did not receive the bonus.
The only reason I’m mentioning this is so that other people don’t apply to that bank from out of state and get disappointed based on your (unintentional) misleading comment here.
Thanks, updated
This is just one of many state specific bonuses that we have been able to bust open out of state. 😉 Can win em all but still made $20 on the cc funding. Eric Happy Camper
Thanks DoC for compiling all of our ramblings and of course the recognition.
Which bonuses were you able to get out of state?
Northwest, 1st Source, Old National, M&T, Huntington, 3 Rivers, etc. Comments are all in the relevant threads.
Out of states are my hobby when I’m excluded from all the national/local bonuses until I’m eligible again. Haha
JuicyJosh ALSO told us that the bank refunded his initial deposit and wouldn’t open the account.
Let me update, thanks.
I’m always very happy to be given the opportunity to say THANKS to others that take the time to help those in our community…God bless you!!!
Thanks everybody!!!
thank you to all of those mentioned!
