I was just told that after all this time, I’m not eligible to receive this bonus because it was opened online. I would have gone to the bank but the original description in this post said in branch OR online ..

Hmmm…had $200 bonus post 4/13, then 5/11 another $200 posted and a $300 posted. Should i pull all funds via chase ACH and close it down? Worth the $25 fee if i get an extra 175.

What makes you think they can’t move your account into negative, even if closed? Then will be mark in Chex…

I had an extra $200 deposited and then they pulled it without asking from my account. But if you just close your account I dunno.

Anyone have DPs on closing this one…didnt see any on the “complete list…” for this bank? I’m soon going to be the DP myself, but thought I would ask to make things easier. Would have loved to close by SM and if not by phone than to drive to a branch. Transferring in 750 each month is no fun,

Being my own DP, I was able to 0 out the balance by bill paying and then SMd to close the account and it was closed.
I was hoping to close on the last day of the statement cycle since I had already met the requirements for no-fee month. However it took them more than a day to see the SM and close the account by which time my statement had already been cut. So I might be charged a fee for the 1 day new statement period for which I did not meet the no fee requirements. I will know if they charge me the last months fee in a few days and will post at that time.

Just opened the account at the branch. Pretty smooth and fast process, friendly manager. No lines but may be because of the weather. The promotion is only at this location because this is a new branch. Need to sign up for eStatement to avoid $2 fee once online account is set up.

I did not get the 1099s as of late Feb and so I called. After that they sent it within 10 days of calling. Its 2 separate 1099-MISCs one for the 300 bonus and one for the 200 bonus.that will be sent. So yes, they do report and you are better off calling and getting them to send it to you.

Confirming this works in Hoboken office. They did note that I have a “large number of online account openings,” but I noted that I run several businesses and it may have been related to those. Entire stop took about 30 min.

Did they express hesitation due to them uncovering that? Do you believe that others might run into issues if they don’t have a good excuse?

11/20/17: DD
12/4/17: DD
12/18/17: DD
12/18/17: $200 bonus

$300 deposited 1/9 as well x2.

And I only got the account open on 10/31, and $10k only posted 11/1 (but the transfer was initiated on 10/31 after verifying trial deposits).

Happy I went ahead with this even though everyone was reporting that money had

to be deposited and clear by 10/31.

Easy $1k.

Warning for account holders of the future: I can’t log into my account, after being told that I had failed to submit my signature card.

First of all, it’s so unlike me not to submit my signature card, I question whether or not I could possibly have done such a thing, after giving me a reminder months earlier.

Secondly, they’ve had deposits and withdrawals, which I thought was de facto seen as the electronic version of a signature card (i.e., if an account with your name on it at Bank 1 pulls or pushes to Bank 2 with your name on it, clearly you must be the owner of said account with your name on it – I know it works for Ally)? Including workplace DDs.

Thirdly, I tried to rectify it before I went out of town for the holidays. The email which told me to call them, gave hours which were a blatant lie, because when I called before those hours evaporated, the lady on the other end of the line said “oh, you need to call back six hours earlier. That’s a different department.”

I received the $200 bonus on my account and DW.

Made deposits from Chase, and Fidelity. Fidelity required a copy of statement but there were no trial credits.

Both show as pre-authorized credit.
