They pull credit from Experian. If you have freezes on your Experian account, they will reject your checking application.

Funded $5k on an Ink while OOS using a referral. Approved instantly.

I’m not sure what happened but I funded the account with $1000 from US Bank SMartly credit card. Everything seemed fine but then a week later WECU closed my account and sent me a $1000 check with a letter that they detected some discrepencies in my identity. Oh well.

Has anyone successfully opened an account out of state using a referral? There are a few comments below stating that the referral program is back

Was not able to fund with CC. The online application accepted $5k deposit via US Bank smartly CC, and opened the account. After a few days there was no balance on the WECU account and the pending charge on the CC disappeared.

US Bank cards typically aren’t recommended for bank funding in general.

There is a referral program now. I confirmed with the chat agent that it stacks with the $400 checking bonus for an extra $50. But not sure if out of state can open it using the referral. message me at rohitjack140 @gmail

I am not sure the referral will stack with the $400: Source: on this page: https://offers.wecu.com/refer-checking-website-home-page
it says: “Offer not redeemable with any other new member offer”
Chat agents may or may not know what they are talking about… that being said, if anyone wants to try, feel free to HMU for a referral link.

How to stack? The referral link does not show the $400 bonus offer.
