I opened the checking account before the November expiration date but have not had the $200 bonus deposited despite it being over 6 months now. Reaching out over secure message has not helped, they stated my account was not targeted for the bonus despite living in one of the states. Any suggestions to get them to pay up?

Located in one of the targeted states, but I did not received the targeted flyer in the mail
Sept 28, 2017: Opened account
Sept 29, 2017: Called Bank to verify bonus attached to account
Oct 1-15, 2017: Several bank reps said only customers who have received targeted flyer in the mail are eligible for bonus
Jan 24, 2017: Received $200 Bonus
Verdict: This bonus is YMMV for non-targeted applicants

I opened my account a few days before you and they said I am not eligible for the bonus because I opened it after the expiration date. I have a local branch.

IMAO this bonus is YMMV if one did receive a targeted flyer in the mail. I do have a branch nearby but I did not receive the targeted flyer, so I consider myself lucky to have received this bonus.

Welp, finally have a DP:

8/22 – opened checking online with P08300 code
9/8 – initial $100 deposit posted (sent Bill Pay from Ally as debit load failed)
9/19 – ACH’d over some extra funds to keep balance >$100 after mo. service fees
11/24 – first mo. service charge
12/22 – second mo. service charge
** get told I’m ineligible for bonus a couple times over SM and phone for weird reasons (e.g. min. balance not >$5k, initial deposit didn’t post immediately) that are not consistent with terms; submit CFPB complaint **
1/12 – receive bonus

Despite all the misinformation from Commerce, CS reps were nice and tried to help. There seemed to be lots of internal confusion about this being a branch vs. corporate bonus.

To close account, ACH out all funds and account will auto-close after one statement cycle with $0 balance (no fees will accrue); or, go into branch.

Did you have to provide any screenshot for CFPB complaint? I started the complaint a bit but did not see any listed options matched the non-receiving bonus for new account opening.

Yep I just contacted them and they told me I am not eligible because the account was open past the expiration date. I know that the original offer expired on September 22 and then got extended until October 5. So I opened my account on Sept. 25 and now they said this.

I saved the entire webpage when I opened my account. I can print it out and show it to a teller, or mail it in. Maybe I will try the teller approach first (faster).

Will post DP after I visit one (or more) tellers.
