I had to go to a second branch to find this bonus but it was worth it. This is up there with the biggest bonus I’ve ever received. Thanks DofC!

1/29/20: Opened account in branch (I have a real business registered with my state)
I made sure to have $25K in the account on day 30 and day 180
I did 10 Amazon gift card reloads of $1.00+ with my debit card to satisfy the qualifying transactions requirement
7/27/20: Bonus posted
I’ve since pulled out money to reduce the balance to $7,500
I’ll close the account in a couple of weeks.

I applied for this but I did not get the bonus. I have been told it’s because I did a “bank-to-bank” transfer which is not the same as an ACH transfer. I have opened a dispute. I’m kicking myself because it would have been easy enough to deposit/write checks for $1.

I opened a dispute.

I was denied a couple of times, but I finally received a letter offering me $500. I’m still disappointed, but I guess it’s fair.

5 business days for me as well – did only ACH, no bill pay or debits and did not hold the funds between day 45 or so and redeposited on day 180 and to meet min balance requirements I opened a directpay account.

I opened account on 12/12/19 – had $25k in on day 30 and then again day 180 which was few days ago. No bonus yet today (06/12/20) so not sure if it always post on exact date 6 months later. I am just hoping it posts.

Or maybe it does post exactly 6 months later and I just messed up something.

Did you remember to do 10 qualifying transactions? I forgot that part and only after I pulled the terms on day 180 I realized that part of the requirement but luckily I did many ACH transactions that met the requirement. Also, because this is a leap year if you did not properly calculate day 30 and 180 it have may messed up.
