They denied my online application most likely due to Chex, but I was able to successfully open in-branch.

9/3: account opened in-branch
9/13: 4x $0.50 Amazon reloads
9/17: $200 bonus posted

This is about as easy as it gets.

so will 4 amazon reloads trigger the $50×4 = $200 bonus? and then the other $200 will just be provided into the account automatically shortly after opening? am i understanding correctly for both parts of the bonus?

anyone know if they post quick or take a while?

I applied on 7/4 and called them today (7/10). Rep said that my application is in progress and I should receive a letter in the next week. Slow process…

I got my denial letter today (7/15). Letter says something about Chex System and having a 149 QualiFile Score (whatever that means). It says these key factors adversely affected my score:
Previous debit inquiry history
Insufficient debt history
Multiple recent debit inquires

“Must mention offer at time of account opening for bonus eligibility”. will there be a code we’ll have to input?

Which checking account gives you the $50.00 per debit card transaction? Some say 18 transactions required, so I’m confused.

The 3% cashback debit card is a really interesting checking account. Caps at $300 spend or $9 CB per month. And requires 18 debit card purchases.

I could see the right person making an easy $8-$9 per month with this.

FYI, I had missed out on this originally, but snoozed the deal in my email so I could follow the link to see if the extend the date again… I just checked now and see the date was updated at some point recently… interestingly enough it shows “June 31, 2019″…

Considering there is no 31st of June, I’m thinking they intended this to run through July especially considering I had just checked this 2 weeks ago and it still had the May deadline. Maybe they’ll fix it this week to provide us some confirmation for an update/repost.
