Does anyone know about the definition of “new money”? I deposit a check from another bank to my Chase checking, then transfer to saving immediately. Am I eligible for bonus?

225 bonus posted early in the “10 business day” window. They also didn’t play any games so I have no complaints (other than their tiny interest rate).

Please anyone know what to deal with my problem give me an advice, thank you in advance
I opened this account together with a checking. Deposited $15k within 5 days.
Due to my mistake, a credit card payment that I originally want to use my checking balalance ended up in this saving and reduce my balance below $15k. I fixed it after a week by transferring money from checking to saving
Will this make me ineligible for the bonus? Calling Chase rep but they have no idea.

I am sorry to tell you that yes, by dropping the balance below $15K, this will make you ineligible for the bonus. The same thing happened to me. To my horror, I found that I had accidentally dropped the balance below $15k.I re-read the rules and it says “Deposit a total of $15,000 or more in new money within 20 business days of account opening; AND 3) Maintain at least a $15,000 balance for 90 days from the date of deposit.” You have to keep the $15k balance from the day you first deposited. It can’t drop below that amount at any time. You can take a chance and let us all know if you get the bonus, but in my case, since it looked like I missed out on the bonus, I withdrew the funds and closed the account. I learned my lesson and it’s one of the reasons why I now keep a little bit over the minimum so this doesn’t happen to me again.

Michael Michael, I forgot to tell you the good news. Not all is lost. You can close the account, then wait 90 days and then reopen the account. Like I said, the same thing happened to me with dropping the balance below the minimum and this is what I did (I closed the account, waited 90 days, and reopened). I am referencing these terms: “not available to those whose accounts have been closed within 90 days” (so account must be closed for over 90 days). And these terms: “You can only receive one new savings account opening related bonus every two years from the last enrollment date and only one bonus per account.” (you didn’t receive a bonus, so this rule does not apply). I hope I explained my thinking. I will let you know if I get my bonus. I re-opened my account on 11/27/18.

Edit: Actually, I was able to re-open an account under the one year terms, so I’m not positive my thinking is all together correct. Hope someone else can help clarify the terms for Michael.

Seems like offer withdrawn early, AND the coupon code mailed to me (via USPS) also is reported that it has expired, even though on the mailer it says it’s valid through today.

Was waiting until the last day to open the account so that the funding period would overlap with Ally funds coming available 🙁

So, the bad news first. Looks like the $225 bonus offer expired early – the link leads to a page that says “Oops….” The $200 offer also seems to be dead. The good news, the $150 offer is good now until 4/15/19.

I was able to use this today in MN.

I had opened a checking account in the fall and they told me savings account was NOT available in my location but it worked today and confirmed it had applied the $225 promo coupon.

Anyone know if Chase can do soft pulls if you have credit freeze in place? Was denied for this account and wondering if it’s because of the freeze.
