$150 in Sign-up Bonuses at Bank of America

There's a new $100 bonus at Bank of America for signing up for a checking account. This new one seems to be targeting MBNA customers. You'll receive $100 as a credit to your new account within 50 days of opening your new personal checking account. Limit one $100 bonus per household every 60 days. Here's the promotional link. The offer expires on 12/31/06.

A similar Bank of America checking account bonus that I reported on in June is still going on. Also, there's a $50 sign-up bonus for a new Bank of America Regular Savings Account that I reported on in July 2nd. These checking and saving bonuses would be a good opportunity for someone who's considering Bank of America's Keep the Change Program.

Note, the $200 sign-up bonus for Bank of America business and personal checking account expired on July 15th.

One issue to worry about with Bank of America is a hard credit pull which has been reported to occur if you don't already have a personal account with them. The other issue is being charged monthly fees. To get out of the monthly fees on the MyAccess Checking account, you need direct deposit. Refer to this FW thread for info about using ACH transfers in place of direct deposit.

Thanks to the reader who emailed me this latest Bank of America bonus.
