I first received an email saying I'd get 75 for the checking and 25 for the CD
Replied back with the link to their own promotion page; and they replied indicating I'd get 100 for the CD.
No mention of what they plan to do with the $25 card - I haven't activated it yet.

On the plus side, my javascipt errors on the website stopped today.

Is adding an HSBC account and then transferring out the money from Netbank to the HSBC account taken as an ACH Withdrawal from Netbank??? It SHOULD .. but I'm not sure ... IF it is an ACH transaction then it's free so that's a quick and easy way to move the money around ..

Please let me know if anyone on here knows

I checked last night and I had received both of my 75 dollar bonuses ... So I went to my HSBC account, added my netbank accounts, and set up the transfer into HSBC (will take 3 business days) ... I transferred a little over $1140 total from both accounts ... Pretty easy - only thing that sucked was that NetBank would not initiate the ACH push out of my NetBank accounts even though I added the HSBC account to my profile ... Kinda lame, if you ask me ... But it doesn't matter - 5 months from now I will have nothing to do with NetBank anyway ... I will have about 8-9 bucks in checking and 500 bucks in MM savings after the transfers go through - these are the numbers I'm keeping in there now until I close it out - so I get my entire amount in a check about 6 months from now ...

In case any of you did not open the money market for the additional $75 bonus - here is what I plan - as soon as my 500 minimum month is up for the checking account I am going to move 570 into a money market and fund an additional 431 so I have a 1000 minimum and then I will get the additional $75 I think. According to the fine print you have up to six months to use this promotion from the time of opening your original account. Anyone see any problems with this? I am leaving $50.00 in checking so I can do some small bill pays to AMEX once every two months for 6 months. TYA

Those rebates were only $70 per account, not $75.

Probably just Patriot Act stuff. You'll likely get a letter asking you to mail fax something like a copy of your DL or a utility bill to verify address, etc.

Got the bonus...thank you Mr. OP.

PITA setting up an account...Netbank requires many forms of ID; e.g., a utility bill, a W-9 form, and a notarized affidavit of domicile among other things.

To fund the account, I first attempted to use their ACH service: apparently their database didn't have an ABA link to my mom-and-pop bank, Citibank. Customer service was generally unhelpful after numerous tries.

So instead, I was forced to use Quickpost (their next-day UPS service), which worked without a hitch.

Put $1000 in savings/$500 in checking for a month, withdrew to $500.01/.01 after that, and waited thirty days for the bonuses.

It didn't come...so I called customer service (twice), they put in a claim to their marketing department (twice), and I finally got the monies a week later.

Sorry to hijack the thread but as a current NetBank customer I would highly recommend people stay away from this company now. They are experiencing significant financial difficulty. They haven't made a profit in several quarters, have just announced that they are handing over their mortgages to another company without compensation, have closed their Financial Technology Unit which provided the QuickPost service and are considering selling their ATM network by the end of this year. If you want to read about all of their problems their ticker symbol is NTBk. While they may be FDIC insured, I would much rather open an account and deal with a financial institution that is on stable feet. I have been a customer for 3.5 years and was very satisfied with their customer service until recently. My guess is that they will probably be out of business in 6 months - 1 year. They had some innovative ideas and products but apparently couldn't properly execute them.

I looked at their terms on the promotion site, and there is no mentioning of 1 reward per account per household. So does it mean that both me and my spouse can take advantage of the checking and MM rewards, creating $75x2x2 bonus?
