I just received a call from Harris seeking to confirm my credit card information, and I inquired about the promotion code. The agent stated that these bonuses are only available to a specific marketing area and that only those who received a mailed invitation are eligible. Nevertheless, I'll follow through with the application and jump through the required hoops just to see if the bonuses post by some fluke. I'll also opt into their promotional mailings to see if I can get into the target group for future bonus offerings.+1

Bobbi Locket called me as well. He said the exact same thing - the promotion would not be honored since I was not in their pre-select list of names.


I would hope they are going to honor this earlier promo since "mailed invites" were never a prerequisite!

Well if you received that "worthless" $100 dining cert. then I assume or hope we all will collect the $150 of bonus cash?

same hereSame report here. I had emailed them about the checking bonus and they told me it should post on my March statement which it did not. Now they are telling me that it should post on my April statement.

alanmax said: Recvd. the $100:
>>4/8/2010 Int IP-IOD INTEREST PAID $100.00<<Did your statement period end on April 8th?

How can I avoid the $4.50 monthly fee for savings and the $15.00 monthly fee for checking?

(BTW, I just received the $100 bonus.)

jackcrawfish said: for those of you receiving the $100 bonus in April, when were your accounts opened/funded? Was it in Novemeber?/////

If so, those of us opening accounts in February 2010 will have to wait until August 2010...Yes, the bonus I received in April was from an account opened in November. The $50 savings bonus posted about a month earlier if I remember correctly. I have since closed the account via a snail mail request.
