The Offer

Direct link to offer (it’s on the homepage as a slider)

• United Community Bank (UCB) is offering a bonus of $200 when you open a new UCB checking account. According to a reader you get $100 for opening the account and then a further $100 for receiving a direct deposit (no minimum mentioned)

The Fine Print

• All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them

Avoiding Fees

The UCB checking account has no monthly fees to worry about. I was unable to find a fee schedule so I’m unsure if there is any early account termination fee or not.
