I just closed a PNC business checking.

Is there any language about only one bonus per year, only one bonus every 6 months, etc.?

I don’t see that language….

I did the $300 Business Checking Plus promotion.
3/14/18: Opened the account in branch and funded with $5,050
4/10/18: Completed 10 debit card purchases
6/13/18: $300 bonus posted
6/15/18: Called PNC and downgraded to regular business checking account
Thanks DoC!

Opened with $5,000. Made 10 debit card transactions within the first month and bonus took just over 90 days from opening date to post.

Account took about an hour to open.

I am still waiting for the bonus to post.
12/12/17 opened account funding with $5050 from personal account transfer.
02/02/18 finished all 10 debit card transactions requirement. All real payments albeit small.
As of today 05/21/18, STILL NO BONUS.
In April when I inquired it at the branch, business banker has changed person but the new person checked everything said the bonus should be posted 90 days after completing the requirement, which would be after 05/02/18 given the last debit transactions were on 02/02/18. She verified the email address was correctly attached to the account and that was all it needed – the email address that received the offer.
Based on others DPs something was not done right by the initial banker when opening the account.

After a lot of follow up with the local branch business account manager. finally saw the $300 posted on Mar 23 as an ACH but with the correct description of New Business Checking Account Bonus.
Cannot wait to close this account once the 6 months are up.
I originally planned on downgrading it to $1500 checking once the bonus posted after the first 3 to 4 months but it did not. The time and effort involved to get the bonus posted has totally put me off and would not keep the account. I could close it Mid June but would just let it ride thru June to generate an additional statement then close it.

Despite the poor experience I would still like to thank DoC for posting bank deals/

DP ($300 Bonus):

1/27/2018: Opened and funded “business” with $5100 from personal acct
3/19: Finished 10th debit charge (all real)
4/13: $300 Bonus

Once again, Thanks! Will look to downgrade this week and move all but $1500 out then close after 6 months end.

I was locked out of my PNC online banking they told me they need to verify my account and the only way they can do this is if I come to a branch. Does anyone know any way I can avoid this?

Why were you locked out? Usually they want you to provide your ID in person.

So you opened the account and then a few days later they told you to come into a branch?

One more thing, it was determined by my banker that the 10 debit transactions were for the full period, not each month.

Has anyone received his bonus from the sign up last year?

I signed up on Dec 12. Wonder how long after the 90 days are up before one sees the bonus?
The original branch manager who opened the account now no longer at this branch. I am not sure she is transferred or simply has left PNC. She told me at the time I could downgrade the account to the $1500 requirement after the first 90 days. Not sure this would be honored by the new branch manager.
Just would hope to see this thread being revived and some would post their data points on when they receive their bonuses.
