The Fine Print

- Offer valid until
December 31st, 2014January 15th, 2014 - $5 statement credit will be applied to your account 10-12 weeks after the promotional period ends
Our Verdict
This is kind of a lame bonus compared to the other credit card issuers that are also trying to promote Visa checkout:
- Free $10 for PNC Debit/Credit Cardholders with Visa Checkout
- Free $10 Visa Gift Card for Bank of America Credit/Debit Cardholders
The fact that it’s targeted make things even worse. That said, free money is free money so it’s well worth seeing if you were targeted for this promotion or not.
I must be going crazy because the only links I see in this post are to the other posts about similar deals from PNC & BoA. This blog post includes a link to the sign up page but not a page to check if you are targeted. http://www.mightytravels.com/13232755/visa_checkout_we_check_it_out_plus_a_possible_5_statement_credit_with_us_bank.php
Where should we be looking to see if we are targeted? our US Bank account? Visa Checkout page?
I second this, where should I be looking for that info?
It should be on the first page that I linked. It’s your milage may vary, I didn’t personally see it but others have.
