Bank Atlantic Checking Signup Bonus
Nov 13, 2005 - 3:45 PM by Ken Tumin
Bank Atlantic is offering $77 gift card and a MP3 player or portable TV for opening a checking account. In addition, you can get $25 for turning in unused checks from your current bank. The offer ends November 23, 2005 and requires a minimum opening deposit of $500. It also requires Direct Deposit or ACH debit. I'm not sure what it means by ACH debit. The gift card will be mailed within 77 days after the account is opened.
The offer doesn't seem to specify which checking account can be opened. Bank Atlantic offers a few with no monthly fees and no charges per check. The small print of the offer does specify that the debit card fee is waived for the first year. There's no additional info about this fee.
Bank Atlantic has 75 branches in South Florida. One thing unique about this bank is that branches are open 7-days a week. Another perk about this bank is that it offers free coin counting.

I called Bank Atlantic yesterday (11/16) to get more details about their promotion, and they told me that the "switch-a-thon" had been extended until 12/31/05. I hope this is true, since it isn't reflected on their site yet. Also, the lady said that the promotion applies only to the VIP free checking account. I sent an email and am waiting for a response to have this clarified, since the site doesn't seem to be that restrictive and seems to leave the choice open to the new customer. More when I hear from them.

Thanks Andrea for info. If the promotion is only for the VIP free checking account, at least that does seem to be one of the better accounts. Please keep us posted on your email response.
