$100 BB&T Bank Bonus

BBT Bank is offering a $100 bonus to customers who open a checking account with them by October 31, 2009. For more information, check details below( source: BBT)

In order to be eligible for the bonus, you have to set up a direct deposit or make 3 online bill payments after you open your checking account with BBT. The beauty of this checking account is that there are no monthly maintenance fees for the free account. The minimum balance to open is $50. The promotion code is AFAAP.

Always remember to check the fine print and eligibility before signing up for a bank bonus deal:

"In order to receive the $100 incentive, new clients must do at least one of the following: 1) Use our online bill payment service to initiate 3 online bill payments from your new checking account within 60 days of account opening, OR 2) Enroll in and receive a direct deposit to the new personal checking account within 60 days of account opening. Any accounts not in good standing, closed, and/or with a balance less than or equal to zero at the time we review account eligibility will not receive the incentive."

One more bit of fine print, you need to be a resident of one of these 11 states:


* Alabama
* Florida
* Georgia
* Indiana
* Kentucky
* Maryland

* North Carolina
* South Carolina
* Tennessee
* Virginia
* Washington, D.C.
* West Virginia

Bummer.

Sorry, let me rephrase, you need to *have* a residence in one of those states & use that address in the application.

The eligibility did NOT mention the option to do 3 bill pays instead of the direct deposit. Also, did not see any restrictions on residence.

Eligibility: This special limited time offer is available to new clients that open a new personal checking account between 10/02/09 and 10/31/09 through BBT.com. A new client is a person who is not currently a signer and who was not a signer within the last 6 months on any BB&T personal checking account. Offer is subject to change or withdrawal at any time without notice, and cannot be combined with any other offer. Offer is limited to one incentive per household, and does not apply to second or multiple personal accounts. In order to receive the $100 incentive, new clients must enroll in and receive 2 recurring direct deposits to the new personal checking account within 90 days of account opening. Any accounts not in good standing, closed, and/or with a balance less than or equal to zero at the time we review account eligibility will not receive the incentive. Normal minimum balance opening requirements apply.
