Get up to $200 with free Online Cash Services when you make 4 purchases and pay 4 bills with bill Pay- TD Ameritrade

How long did it take to receive your debit cards? I signed up on 2/11, still no card..

What's the problem with sending a secure email or simply picking up the damn phone and asking the company directly. Here's an fyi from doing exactly the above. ugh- lazy people.

I am happy to help. The Bill Pay and ATM/Debit card promotions are separate from the new account free trading promotion. You actually do not need an offer code for the Bill Pay and ATM/Debit card promotions. Your account is automatically eligible.

If you make the qualifying transactions by 3/31/2012, your account will automatically receive the cash bonuses. Please note that cash bonuses will be paid 3 to 5 business days after 3/31/2012 regardless of when you complete the qualifying transactions.

If you have any additional questions, please let us know.

Best regards,

Client Services, TD Ameritrade
Division of TD Ameritrade, Inc.

Says the guy who called everyone lazy for following rule #1 of deals. Did you really think you were the only one who thought to contact CS? Seriously? We don't do it because we've seen where that road leads.

Got my card today too, applied on 2/11. Haven't received the pin yet.

I applied directly. When the chat box option was available, I asked if there were any special codes I needed for the atm/bill promo. Sent her a link to promo. She said no codes, and the promo would apply. I then reconfirmed with secure mail before I finished the complete sign up process. I simply said that I'd rather not go through a complex sign-up process if the bonus does not attach to my account. Also said to simply transfer back my 10K, if I was not eligible, and I would cancel the sign up process. That was the secure message response I posted. I was not targeted; however, a friend that works at TD Ameritrade gave me a heads-up on the promo. FW provides follow-up info; however, I will continue to believe that most use FW to milk the system. Which is fine by me, simply do not whine when you know you are milking the system.

USrules said:   What bothers me is the random reports of hard pulls, some (possibly) following debit card request. Others seem to think the hard pulls are related to margin request at account opening...
I already have an account with TD and did the 4x bill pay but I prefer to avoid any hard pulls so I haven't requested a debit card yet.
I wish there was more clarity as to what triggers hard pulls and specifically if debit card request on a pre-existing account may trigger one...

Data point: pre-existing customer, ordered debit card by mail around 3 weeks ago, no hard pull as of today on TU or EX, haven't checked EQ. WA state.

From reviewing this thread, I didn't notice any reports of existing customers getting a hard pull, but if they did another variable might be how much they have deposited at TD. If they already have 10,000 of your money, that might be a criteria they use for trusting you with a debit card with $1000/day limit (or whatever). Just brainstorming...

Most of mine less than 24 hours. There was one that took a couple of days, but I think that was because it was over a weekend. I've sent 5 total bill pays so far.

I opened a new account (not an existing TD customer) and received my debit card earlier this week. No hard inquiries at any of the 3 credit bureaus.

How long does it take for the debit card purchases to show up online? I've made a few purchases and I'm not seeing anything pending online.
Unless there is a different area of the website to go and look; I'm on my main account page.

Go to "online cash service" tab and you should see all the billpay or debit card transactions, although i agree that their transactions aren't posted timely (slow compare to other banks).

I have nothing at this time and I made almost $100 in total charges this weekend, which started with charges on Saturday.
I don't think I've seen a bank's charges delayed by this much, but I guess they are considered more of a discount broker than bank.

no, the only way they would count as a debit card purchase would be if you wrote out a check. Using the debit card to pay a bill is not a purchase.

They specifically stating using the TD Ameritrade Visa® debit card and make 4 purchases. ( not writing checks)

• Clients who successfully sign up for the TD Ameritrade Visa® debit card and make 4 purchases valued at a minimum of $10 each by 3/31/12 will receive $100 cash.

Is pin-less purchase qualified as the debit card transaction or do I have to use pin to do the transaction in order to qualify?

I mailed in my request for debit card on 2/15, but still have not receive it. It has been 3 weeks.
Did you faxed in your request or mailed it?

Did you faxed in your request or mailed it?IIRC, I faxed my Check card request to TDAmeritr@de when I opened the new Checking account around 2/8/12. I had an existing TD brokerage account.
It seems that you may have a USPS delivery problem.
My TDAmeritr@de Check card request was delivered within <5 days of my order, and within <8 days of the debit card pin#.

I mailed my request for checks & debit card. Received the checks over a week ago, but no debit card. I guess I will have to mail the request again, or fax it.

Edited to add:
I just logged online to my account, tried to print out the request form again. There is a phone number on the debit card request webpage: 888-723-8504, option 6.

I called, told the CSR that I still have not received my debit card.
The CSR asked if I received my checks, I said yes. So he looked into it.
Appearantly, he said there is no debit card requested for my account, which was not true. When I mailed out my request 3 weeks ago, I was pretty sure I marked the checkbox to request for both the debit card and the checks.

He said he could do a request for me right now so that I will get it within 7 business days.
I asked if I still qualify for the $100 bonus, he said yes. Fingers crossed.

I tried to open new account with partner offers; no luck. It seems all partner offers are expired.
