All bonuses are received at account opening. We reserve the right to substitute an item of similar value. Offer good on personal checking accounts only; health savings accounts, money market, savings, business and corporate accounts do not qualify for these plans. Offer not valid on accounts opened through our online application unless a valid coupon code is entered. Subject to 1099 tax reporting. Offer valid to 11/30/07.

Maybe I'm missing something, but regarding the statement, "Offer not valid on accounts opened through our online application unless a valid coupon code is entered"...what coupon code do you have to enter in order to receive the $50 bonus?

I applied online for this offer and sent in my signature card. About a week later, I received a letter from Chase saying that my application was denied because this offer was available only in-branch. It seems strange that an online offer was denied for this reason.

I wonder if my note on the signature card not to send checks had anything to do with it.

I was also denied, with the following explanation:

"In reviewing your application, we were unable to verify some of the information that you provided on your application."

When I called Chase to inquire about "the information" they couldn't verify, the customer service rep couldn't help me, she said that I would have to go into a branch...which of course I can't do because there are no Chase branches in my area.

When I called Chase, the customer service representative instructed me to write on my signature card in big bold letters: "PLEASE DO NOT ORDER CHECKS." So I guess the checks are optional even though the fine print wording made it seem as though they weren't.

Is signature card also required for an existing customer?

The signature card was part of the application process, I don't think they'll open your account until you return it. I have Chase credit cards, but no Chase deposit accounts...and apparently (after talking to both sides), these two departments do not share information. So unless you already have a signature card on file with Chase from an existing deposit account, I believe it's required.

As I started the application process for this promotion, I noticed the following fine print:

Note: You will receive statements by mail, but no cleared checks or check images. This is a FREE service. Your first box of checks will be ordered for you. They will arrive 7-10 business days after your account has been processed. Your account will be charged $22.95.

I believe this drops the "$75 cash bonus" down to $52.05.
