I got an email from TD Ameritrade (not TD Bank) with a bonus offer for existing IRA customers. Bonuses for existing customers are much less common than those for new accounts. The bonuses are also larger than those offered in their retail-facing advertisements for new clients. The email may be targeted, so YMMV.
