Looks like it requires a $500 minimum balance, not just initial deposit... double bad.

Can't you just close the account after 3 or 6 months (whatever is after the early account closing fee)?

Yeah, making 20% on your money in 6 months is a bad thing...

where is the $500 minimum balance requirement?

Looks like a good deal. I don't see an early close penalty. The only thing about closure says the account must be open when the bonus is posted.

Anyone with info on whether there is a hard pull?

Note that the $25 bill pay offer for existing customers is mentioned on the lower-right side of the page.
"Already a Bank of America checking customer?
You may still qualify for the $25 Online Bill Pay offer."
It links to http://billpayoffer.bankofamerica.com/

I don't see where it requires a minimum balance. It says you have to open a personal checking account. Here are available personal checking accounts:

http://www.bankofamerica.com/deposits/checksave/

The MyAccess® Checking Account has no minimum balance.

* Monthly maintenance fee is waived if opened online
* No minimum balance
* Most popular account

Am I missing something?

I applied for this offer last month with $500. The language is kind of vague so I am keeping $500 in there. However, I didn't realize, but should have known that BOA will do a hard credit check on me with Experian, probably due to the debit card.

Seems like a great promotion. I applied and it took only a few minutes to get approved, funded, and set up for online banking.

BoA is requesting me to call them to finish the account opening, is this normal? I have no previous history at BoA.

EDIT: Called up BoA, they told me that they could not accept the application online and that I would have to open the account in person at a branch. When asked about the maintenance fee being removed since it would be in person the agent gave a very wishy-washy answer.

I'm a college freshman with absolutely no credit history, which I'm guessing prevented me from opening the account.
