Fidelity brokerage account
« on: August 08, 2010, 02:39:03 PM »
I got an offer on the mail to open a Fidelity brokerage account and earn bonus AA miles.
By depositing $100.000 they give 50.000 miles, $50.000- 25.000 miles or $25.000- 15.000 miles.

Has anyone done it and can you please share your experience? Is it hassle free?

So fund 100K, get 50K miles, pull the money out, rinse and repeat for your SO's.
Sounds good to me.
Any minimum amount requires to avoid maintenance fees? How long does the account need to be open to avoid early-closure fees?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
