I got the mailer and just opened the account. However my mailer has slightly different conditions to get the $600 bonus: $300 after $2500 deposit, and $300 after 15 debit transactions. I couldnt open it online and when I called they told me to get to the branch. I called the branch and they were able to open the acount by sending them the ID by private message.

Anyone else recently get a mailer? I was suppose to get one (saw it within informed delivery) but mail wasnt delivered that day, so not sure if it has a unique code or what the terms are. Can only see that it was a $600 bonus.

Yes, I got the mailer, it has a unique code that you have to use to get the $600 bonus. ($400 after $2500 deposit, and $200 after 15 debit transactions).

Would you happen to have the Payer ID Number? Looks like mine got lost in the mail, because still nothing.

I haven’t. If I don’t, I plan to report $400 as taxable under Other Income since it was due to DD. $200 not taxable due to the spend requirement.

Following up on my previous reply in 05/2021. P1 P2 P3 all did Capital One ACH push and 15 debit, all received bonus within a week or two of 90 days of account opening. All accounts were closed via SM or phone (forgot which one, but definitely wasn’t mail or physical).

Ally transfer showed up as “ALLY BANK P2P Firstname Lastname” and was not described as external transfer or ACH anywhere in the FNB transaction

9/14 – account opened with $50 opening deposit with an Alexandria, VA zip code
9/22 – received a courtesy call from FNB rep from their DC branch (introductions, what drew me to FNB, explanation of the promotional bonus, some of their services, where do I typically bank)
10/5 – pushed $2501from Ally, but showed up as “ALLY BANK P2P”

Still have some time before the 90 days are up, so I’ll see if pushing from a different bank codes as ACH. In the meantime I’ll work on the 15 debit transactions, but still haven’t received my debit card, even though the rep from 9/22 said it was on it’s way…so Zelle it is.

Also, wow, the daily limit for transferring money from FNB via Zelle is $200 per day and $400 per 30-days.

I’ll update at the end of 90 days whether I manage to trigger the requirements for the bonus or not.

Opened 5/14. Received bonus 09/30 $600
No DD info (real DDs)
I was afraid I wasn’t going to get it with everyone saying they received it close to the 90 days mark.
