Hi,
I just talked with the local branch of US Bank, and it sounds like they will have a similar promotion running March 13th thru March 19th. I don’t know a lot of details (they didn’t have a flier or anything), but they way she described it sounded very similar to this. It might be worth looking into in more detail.

I hope TD has changed……I did their checking, savings and credit bonuses several years ago and had nothing but trouble including a non authorized withdrawal made by my debit card which was never activated. They also tried to reneg on the credit card bonus. Customer service is beyond terrible plus there were issues with their ACH processes…..charging for either pushing or pulling funds. Just a terrible experience. Ah yes….there was also an issue with routing numbers. I rate companies based on the number of “we are sorry for any inconvenience we have caused”.I receive. TD’s count was over the top..

U.S. Bank has also been sending out mailers offering $250 for opening an Everyday Checking Account with direct deposit. You have to bring in the mailer.

Direct deposit is less of a pain than debit card spending for me. It takes me two minutes at work to change my account lineup and then I just change it back when I’m done.

Got the $250 bonus 3 days after the $1k hit my account.

Keep your eyes on your mailbox if you’re interested. I’ve gotten multiple $250 to $600 offers from regional and national banks in the past month. U.S. Bank alone sent me two or three mailers.

Heads up for anyone doing this – it has to be a physical purchase, online charges don’t count. When I called in to ask about the bonus(for Sep-Dec period), they said the bonus would accumulate and post all at the same time once the promotional period has ended. This is completely incorrect. Based on research in the other threads, the $50 monthly bonus should post relatively quickly.

Also, the “Because You’ve Earned It” program is really only an online naming gimmick – none of the bankers I spoke with knew about it, but they do know that the gold checking package will have waived fees with a credit card.

I was told both online and physical spending count in the branch. The offer sheet I got only says “Spend $100 or more with your new US Bank Visa Debit Card in each of the four qualifying months (February, March, April and May) to earn $50 per month, up to $200”. Did your offer sheet say it has to be a physical purchase?

So it is $50 for spending $100 for the first four months of the year. If I signed up today, would I get a debit card in time to spend $100 before feb?

According to the rep when I opened my account yesterday, she said I would have to make $100 in debit card purchases in each of Feb, March, April, and May.

Expires today according to a Meijer branch in Ohio. Will be nearby tomorrow, but that’s already late.

received other U.S. Bank bonus offers within the past twelve months

Do U.S. Bank bonus offers include credit card bonus?

I already have a gold checking with them. Can I open another one and get the bonus?

I am at the branch right now in korea town (los Angeles county), representative stated that it expires today.
Does anyone know if pulling money from serve will trigger $100 spend for the bonus? Has anyone done it for previous offer?

If I use serve to pull money from the debit card, would it work as a $100 spend ?
I guess it is the same as debit card transaction and should trigger the bonus the spend?

Did you ever try this? Did it work for you?
