Thanks OP...lots of bank bonus deals lately,
including the $100 M&T Bank last Monday.

Total bonuses so far this year about $300.

I see a new AMD 9950 cpu and Gigabyte GA-MA770-UD board
in the future.

OK, my story:
Yes, no direct deposit requirement, no minimum deposit requirement. I opened this account 3 years ago, and I got the bonus, which is good. But sometime last year, I started being charged monthly maintenance fee. Then I contacted their CSR, and finally I found out what the reason is. The previous promotion was ended sometime last year, and they started another identical promotion. But since the promotion I opened the account for was ended, I was charge maintenance fee since then.
So be aware: you will be charged maintenance fee when the current promotion is ended and they start another one.

"10You will receive your $50 credit to your new account within 50 days of opening your new personal checking account online. Limit one $50 incentive per household every 6 months. Offer valid only for new MyAccess Checking® accounts"Valid for new accounts, which would include existing customers who open a new account.

GROUP50 is an old code that seems to have made a comeback. I'm tempted to enter code GROUP100 instead, as that's been the parallel $100 bonus promotion in the past.

And if you are going to open the account anyways, you might as well go to the BofA website and choose a cool "MyExpressions" MyAccess account that comes with a fun debit card (I chose Hello Kitty myself ). Just make sure to enter the promo code on the application, as it wont be auto-filled.

Hey Glitch. Does GROUP100 work? Has anyone tried it?

(That's why I got married, to double up on deals like this.)

Caution my friend, says one per household in a 6 month period, be smart and do it in your wife's name now and 6-7 months later (before end of the year for sure) in your name.

Don't forget the $250 added bonus with the KTC program. Paying $1.01 at a time to my cable company still works and the torture of having to do it over 250 times is a small price to pay...

It says in the terms that a savings account should be opened as well. Does anyone know if having a savings account already satisfies that requirement?

Thanks OP !!

Was going to open a new account in the bank as they have a 9 month cd for 2.5 % but risk free so u can withraw all or part of money once every seven days in case if u r in need of money.. incase some one is looking for short term cds.

Says expired for me.

Is this still valid? I don't see it mentioned anywhere.
When do you get the KTC bonuses, monthly, at the end of the year?
If it is yearly then do you forfeit the KTC if you close the account before the end of the year?
Thanks.

Thanks.Go to bankofamerica.com/ktc. You should be able to sign up an existing acct. The bonus is paid on the 1 year anniversary. Yes, you have to leave the acct open.
