Back in early January we were the first to post about a potential $250 checking bonus from Wells Fargo. At the time I cautioned readers that the offer might be targeted due to the following language:
- This is an exclusive, nontransferable offer.
That being said, this language is not actually included the actual qualification requirements in the fine print and it’s not included in any of the documentation after signing up (other qualification requirements are included). Several readers have now successfully received their $250 bonuses, so I now feel comfortable recommending this bonus to readers even if they didn’t receive any official communication from Wells Fargo. All that being said, your own experiences may differ.
Because of how good this bonus is (soft pull, $250 bonus and there is no direct deposit requirement) we’ve added it to our list of the best checking promos. In fact it’s currently sitting at #1.
