As of 9/15 clicking on the direct link to the offer takes you to the bbva home page (is the offer expired?)

DPs:
8/14/17 – Opened in branch with $40
8/15/17 – TD Ameritrade small dollar credits
8/16/17 – TD Ameritrade ACH transfer in $304.xx
8/28/17 – THANK YOU! $200 ACCOUNT OPENING BONUS – FL-GC

I was asked about overdraft protection at account opening and I declined. Apparently that only means overdraft is turned off for “ATM transactions and everyday debit card transaction.” After reading overdraft info on their website, it appears that they automatically turn on overdraft for “checks and other transactions.” This can be turned off inside online banking.

Did anyone else have overdraft automatically added? This is def something I decline everywhere but I dont even recall seeing or talking about it. In my experience, this is usually a pretty noticeable acknowledgement area of the process. I told my banker i wanted to decline once we got the app setup on my phone but she kept insisting I can turn it off. Seems like the damage is already done though. Sales goals?

Not sure if it was Ally or Fidelity but one of em triggered the bonus.

DPs:
8/18/17 – $25 checking deposit, opened in branch
8/22/17 – $301 CREDIT FOR ALLY BANK P2P CO REF- (my name)
8/23/17 – $301 CREDIT FOR FID BKG SVC LLC MONEYLINE CO REF- XXXX
8/28/17 – $200 THANK YOU! $200 CASH ACCOUNT OPENING BONUS- FL-GC

I completed my account opening in the branch today. I was told by the banker that the promotion has been extended to the 25th

Called the number and was told by first rep that even if opening via phone, you would have to eventually have to go by branch to sign forms and present social card before account was officially opened. Then talked to second rep and he said that the offer is now closed for all AL branches.

In branch visit is required 100%, or can we get by with a phone application? I live in Orlando, so about an hour away from a branch

I went into the Gainesville, Florida branch today and applied. Nice guy, easy app, soft pull. I’m liking BBVA so far.

I spoke with a CSR about opening an account over the phone, she said the account opening is done with their telephone banking department but you have to go in branch to sign paperwork and make the initial deposit.

She didn’t sound 100% confident, but the answer I got anyway indicates you can’t fund with a CC and get the promotion, it’s one or the other.
