Seems like a pretty straight forward deal. Thanks!
They say: with a Direct Deposit of the entire amount from a Payroll, Social Security, and/or Pension. But then say: Minimum amount for the direct deposit is $100.
Are they really going to know I'm not depositing the "entire amount from a Payroll"?

Someone else can guess, but I would guess some arbitrary amount like $500 should get r done... I am thinking I am going to take advantage of the deal considering my 6 month sentence of Chase direct deposit from another bonus & UFB Direct is asking for my DL but I am way too cheap to pay the state to update it to my current address...

Don't see a link on their site to open an account on-line, so unless they can do it over the phone, it may require an in-person visit. Anybody know if they do a HARD PULL and not just a ChexSystems inquiry?

Can't tell, gut is no, but they do offer a contact us on their website.
I have contacted them asking 1.) Possible to open online? & 2.) Hard credit pull? Will update. Even with poor results I still may pop in a branch on a lunch break since one branch is very close to me.
Sidenote: I'm in FL & this bank is pushing the area hard with radio marketing with stuff like "proudly stood on our on two feet, didn't take or need a gov't bailout" etc.

I just opened an account today. They said that I should call them up once the direct deposit posts to receive the $100 and they ask for your employer during the application.

So this is in-person, with a Direct Deposit of the entire amount from a Payroll, Social Security, and/or Pension, and in limited locations?
