Update 2/25/20: Readers report seeing this offer with Chase now. Might be with other banks too. This time it’s $35 back on $30 spend, so it’s actually a $5 moneymaker.
Update 02/17/18: A new Bank of America offer has been released with a new set of targeted people. Previous expiration was 2/15/18 and new expiration is 4/22/18
The Offer
Check your bank login to see if you were targeted (A number of banks use the same back end for these offers. This includes: Bank of America, Regions Bank, Suntrust Bank, BBVA, BB&T, PNC, Columbia Bank, Beneficial Bank, and Christian Community CU. You can read this post for more information):
- Must pay 1 monthly DirecTV Now bill of at least $35 using the card associated with the offer to earn $35 cash back to your eligible debit or credit card. Cash back will be delivered to account at least 30 days after qualifying payment is made.
The Fine Print
- Offer expires 4/22/18, valid one time only
Our Verdict
Update: Keep in mind there are other offers for directv, you’ll want the one that says it’s eligible on directv now to be eligible for the stacking mentioned.
You can sign up for a new one month membership here starting at $35 per month. Then you could go through a portal and get $22 cash back, making it a $22 money maker if you cancel after the first month. A better deal is to sign up for 4 months and get a 4K Apple TV, you also get $22 cash back when going through BeFrugal. The deal would then look like this:
- Sign up for 3 months, pay $35 per month ($105). BeFrugal says it has to be 4 months, but it’s actually only three.
- Get $35 from this deal
- Get $22 cash back from the portal
Total out of pocket cost is $48. They usually cost $179, so should be able to sell it for a healthy profit if you don’t want to keep it.
