Our Verdict
This deal is pretty limited in that only Los Angeles Unified School Districts can apply for it, that said it’s nice to see a bank offering a promotion for their existing customers as well as new customers. Due to the membership requirements we’re unsure if this is a hard or soft pull and as such can neither recommend or not recommend this offer. If you have any additional information then please let us know in the comments section. If you’re not a LAUSD employee then check out our best bonuses open to all.
