At the branch right now, I’m opening an account as a sole prop using my SSN despite having another account under an LLC (with a separate EIN) here. Banker says it’ll be fine, I’ll let you know how it goes.

She tried to say the code wouldn’t work because the offer expired but I convinced her to check and it came up as eligible. She said she’s never had so many appointments in 9 years as a banker.

At the last stages there is a box for them to "verify" the code, I did it on Friday, and it went through.

What do you mean it was expired? After she put the code in the box and it couldn't verify?
Make stuff happen.

What I think S209 means: Expired means they’re no longer offering it, the banker said this before they checked.

Which branch?

I went to Manchester last week, and the banker said he had covered in Lakewood the week prior and they were swamped.


(I purposely went to Manchester because of this; lol on me)

On County Line in Jackson, it was actually empty. Did it go ok, introvert and all?

Banker was nice, and actually totally on board with it. Told me it's a "no brainer".

I highly doubt it, the banker has very little power. Also, the other offer is no longer available (as is this one) so it’s really a very weak argument. It’s obviously not as good but even this offer is pretty fantastic.

I went there this past Friday and opened up an account (for my S-corp). It was pretty empty at that time, but she said that they were crazy busy the whole week due to this offer and everyone in Lakewood being a Sole Prop ;)

Officially not but I don’t think it’s hard coded, they may ask you to show the email you received though.

Not hard to workaround that.

It’s a stylistic thing, called a dobby print.

did it work,

i have a account there for one LLC and want to open for a different LLC but under the same social. i asked a banker and she wasn't sure but didn't think it will work
