My DP on opening. In VA, instant approval. The CC machine is broken – different browsers did not help. Pulls Chex each time you start to fill out the application. Not nice.

10/30: Applied from TX using online link from offer page (promo code XAKT-29ML was already populated). Went pending, but was approved via email half an hour later. Chex: 8/12, 5/6

Funding options for the $100 min. deposit included debit and credit funding up to $101, but neither option worked in my browser (resulted in a blank popup window) so I just went with external transfer via Plaid instant verification.

Only US Citizens can apply online.

Warning: looking at their fee schedule, I see that starting from July 1st 2023, they added a $3 fee for each external transfer initiated from their end via online banking or mobile app. Therefore, I do not recommend using their external transfer functionality.

Thanks for the info! External transfer fees gotta be one of the most annoying things banks do. Another reason pushing / pulling from a hub is almost always best.

Ameris bank seems to have a $300 checking bonus for $1,500 DD. Saw a post on FB, will try and leave the link as it seems you can’t find it on google. Maybe they haven’t added it to their main page yet?  Chuck  William Charles
I was approved online in FL, $100 min funding is required but I chose the “fund in branch” option which I then got an email saying I have 30 days to deposit the money. My DD should hit the acc next week, so I don’t think funding is needed
