Chase $125 Bonus good until 10/30. Must log in a Chase account to see or hit the stop button.

Chase said:To qualify for the reward you must open a new Chase CheckingSM account with a $100 minimum opening deposit of new money (money not currently held by Chase or its affiliates). Also, within 60 calendar days of account opening, you must initiate a monthly direct deposit such as payroll, pension or Social Security, or other government benefits. The reward will be deposited into your new account within 10 days after the initial direct deposit has posted to your account. Limit one personal checking account-related reward/premium per customer, per calendar year. Offer not available on account conversions or in combination with any other offer. Reward is not considered part of the minimum opening balance. Checking account must remain open for a minimum of six months or the reward will be debited from the account at closing. Account is subject to approval. Reward is considered interest and will be reported on IRS Form 1099-INT. Chase CheckingSM is available only at Chase branded branches, excluding branches in California.

Bank of America $100 Bonus

Incentive: Up to $100. You get $75 when you open (1) qualifying new checking account with an opening balance of $250 during the eligibility period and (2) use your debit card for the new checking account to pay for a purchase from a merchant within 30 days after opening the new account. To get the additional $25, use our online bill payment service to pay two bills from your new checking account within 30 days after opening the account. Small Business customers are also eligible if they enroll in the Online Business Suite Direct Payments service and make two payments within 30 days. If we determine that you meet all the terms of the offer, we generally pay the incentive within 90 days of account opening. We may deposit the incentive directly into the new Bank of America checking account or we may mail a check to the address listed in our records for the new checking account. We may report to the IRS the value of the incentive we pay to you and you are responsible for any applicable taxes.

Best chance to find a $125 code is to visit your USPS office and pick up a mover's guide. There should be a Chase $125 coupon in there.

Some have reported success stacking these $125 offers with a $25 referral code also, but not always. I've had 1 friend successfully stack them and another get rejected at the exact same Chase branch but on different days.

How do I get this $125 coupon? I've just chatted with a sales rep and she said the marking dept "systematically" send out these coupons, but there were nothing I can do to get them.
Any links?

has anyone who has done this before found that chase does a hard pull for checking accounts?

I read from previous thread, it's soft pull if you already have credit account with chase..
Also I funded this free checking account with citi credit card, as someone said it counts as purchase.
we will see.

how many times can you get the free $100 / $125 a year? i know you can have more than one chase bank account at a time.

close the account after 180 days to avoid any fees.

I've received the $125 personal bonus recently; it comes quick and easy and you can use PayPal for your direct deposit. Note for the personal account, you can be from any state. Requires a monthly direct deposit (easier than 5 debit card transactions) to avoid fees, and account must remain open for 6 months.

Has anyone with a sole proprietorship/small biz successfully opened the business checking at a local branch? I have a very small sole prop, not much income. I was just wondering what info they will want, what questions they will ask, etc.

only one bonus per year (from the date of your last account)
