Our Verdict
I’m not sure if you only need to go in branch for the special surprise or not, as the fine print and offer is a little confusing (especially since Pinnacle Banks in other states have the same $100 bonus without the in branch requirement). If somebody in Texas can confirm this, that would be great. If you don’t need to go in branch, then it’s a great offer. Otherwise only makes sense if you live close.
