It might mean that you have to check that box on the last page about expressing interest in their Business Employee Check Cards. I'm not too thrilled about them calling though. Can you request one later?

I'm being told by a online chat CSR that the code M100BUS still works (it's an old offer), and does not require funding during opening of the account. She says that it just needs to be funded within 30 days of opening the account, and has the same terms of the other offer, $100 gift check within 60 days of opening.

Nevermind, looks like these are all features of the new code, and the Check Card is sent automatically. From the page after submit:
3. If your new account is approved, we encourage you to fund your new account with at least $100 within 90 days. Your account will be opened initially with a $0 balance. Upon funding the account, we will automatically send you a new Bank of America Business Check Card.

I can have hundred's of businesses with zero income!I'd assume it would be one per SS# regardless of if you use different biz names, but otherwise yes, only limited to the number of taxIDs you have to use. But by all means give it a shot and let us know.......

Not really. As long you have a SSN and a credit file, you will be ok.
