I know that most people here are hooked up with Bluebird, but if you are one of the few who have a Serve account, here is an email offer I got from AMEX serve. [I don’t know if it is targeted, it doesn’t seem like it.]
We'll give you a $50 account credit after your second Direct Deposit of $250 or more to your American Express® Serve Account, when received by September 30, 2013.
This can be done in My Account>Funding Sources.
Relevant terms and conditions:
To receive the $50 credit from Serve, you must: (i) activate your Serve Card, (ii) successfully enroll in Direct Deposit that your employer participates in and (iii) receive a minimum of two qualifying Direct Deposit transfers of $250 or more to your Serve Account, the second of which must post on or before September 30 2013. A qualifying Direct Deposit is defined as a recurring Direct Deposit of a paycheck or other regular monthly income electronically deposited by an employer into your Serve Account. Transfers and loads from any other funding source (including P2P, credit or debit card, cash, bank account) do not qualify as load transactions to receive a credit … Statement credit will be posted to your Serve Account within thirty (30) days of your satisfying the above requirements. Limit one (1) $50 credit per Serve Account. Subaccount holders are not eligible to earn a credit. Offer subject to change or cancellation at any time and cannot be combined with any other offer(s).
If Chase Checking coupon offers are any indication, DD from my bank account should work.
I will try it out and post the results.
