Current offer is $300 for performance select or $200 for performance spend.

To be eligible for the offer, you can't have an open account, you can't have a closed account within the last 90 days, and you can't have received a bonus in the last 12 months. Offer only available to residents of AL, DC, DE, FL, GA, IL, IN, KY, MD, MI, MO, NC, NJ, NY, OH, PA, SC, VA, WI and District of Columbia.

You can fund the account with a CC up to $2,000 for free. Its reported on DDF that you can't use Amex. Don't use citi as you will be charged a cash advance fee and you won't earn any points. This is a great way to get 2,000 points for free.

To get the $300 you must have $5000 of direct deposit within the first 60 days and complete at least 1 bill pay.

To get the $200 you must have $2000 of direct deposit within the first 60 days and complete at least 1 bill pay.

The Performance Spend account has a $15 monthly fee waived with a Total qualifying direct deposit of $2,000 or greater per statement period OR
$2,000 average monthly balance in checking.

The Performance Select account has a $25 monthly fee waived with Combined, qualifying direct deposits of $5,000 or greater per statement period OR
$5,000 average monthly balance in checking including linked checking accounts.

Bonus $ can take 60 days to post (but usually doesn't). Early closing fee of $25 applies if you close your account within 180 days. You can withdraw all the money except $25 and SM to close and debit the fee.

Electronic transfers counted as Direct deposits include Paypal, Amazon payments, Bluebird, and Loyal3.

From T&C " New account will not be eligible for offer if any signer has signing authority on an existing PNC Bank consumer checking account or has closed an account within the past 90 days, or has been paid a promotional premium in the past 12 months"

Bonus seems to be churnable every year. For MS purposes though, I wonder how often they allow you to open and close.
My account was not eligible for that PNC bonus, however the First Data account will allow the business account to be fee free.

Not eligible for $400 bonus... is the initial 2k from cc to load account valid on all offers? Might keep that in back pocket to clear some spending thresholds...

I don't understand meaning of  "Establish a qualifying direct deposit of $5,000 to your new account".

It is over the period, Not in single direct deposit, correct?

 Your checking account must remain open in order for you to receive the $300 reward, which will be credited to the eligible account within 60 days after all conditions have been met and will be identified as "Cash Trans Promo Reward" on your monthly statement

can anyone confirm/report if chase external transfer count and how long dose it really take to get the credit
i used chase external and a week past bonus didnt post yet

Really weird, my initial deposit was paid with my cc and it showed it went thru on my cc account, but then i saw that there was no money in my virtual wallet account. I called and this woman told me that they are giving me a refund for the initial deposit and it didn't work because you cant pay an initial deposit greater than $100. I'm really baffled why there would be an option to put greater amounts of money into the account if it doesn't work... Did anyone else have this same problem?
