Still haven't gotten the $150 Slickdeals rebate from the AMEX card deal from a month back...
Vanguard money market is about 2.49% or so currently. Places like Cit bank is around 2.45%. Other places have 2.3-2.4%ish accounts. Purepoint has a no-penalty CD at 2.6%

But with 20K to play with, you may be better off doing the bank bonus game -- Discover/Capital One/HSBC checking/Citi and so on.
I checked our system and your approval is showing up on 3/8. You should receive payment by early next week.

It took a bit over a week but [email protected] did reply with a status update. I understand there was a backlog of emails which caused the delay. Thanks for the update.

For anyone else who hasn't received a bonus and your 60 days are approaching, email them and provide screenshots of the submitted form along with maybe the HSBC approval email. They will reply it may just take them a bit.

If you haven't received the bonus and it hasn't been 60 days yet perhaps you shouldn't email as that just adds to the backlog...

Got a note back from slickdeals that said rebate was approved and will be paid. The company really needs some better tracking on this type of stuff.

I'm curious about this, as this is my first time having any interest in this game with savings accounts. What kind of target bonus' should I expect to see from each of these banks? I've seen targetted offers for the following so far:
Discover: $150 for $10k invest
HSBC: $350 for $20k invest
Citi :$400 for $20 invest

ANY tips here would be appreciated, TIA!!!

Those are pretty much standard bonuses. Once in a while you'll see things like Ally and its 1% bonus (up to 1K) or the Sapphire bonus at $750, but otherwise most bonuses are in the $200-$300 range.

I think Discover also has a $200/25K offer and Capital One usually has some sort of offer for new customers. I thought the HSBC offer only required 10K? But maybe they changed their requirements. Check out doctor of credit for all the zillion bonuses out there.

The thing to keep in mind also is money lost if a bank doesn't offer a 2% savings acct. Sometimes it doesn't really pay to do a bonus, especially ones that require 50K+, if you leave it sitting there earning 0% interest for 6 months.

If new to this, I'd recommend the Discover bonus first, as they tend to pay out superfast (like within a week). And I think they also allow cumulative deposits.

On the main page, do all the 5 bullet points turn green with checkmarks? I did all the steps and only the top 3 turned green/checked.

If it's been 60 days and you have not received yours just email them. They do take some time to return emails but quickly resolved the problem. My account was not showing approved to them, even though it had been approved for some time. I just had to provide a screenshot showing that I was in fact approved and it was resolved! They said the next round of rebates will be in 1-2 weeks 😀

The idea of involving SD and any banking is scary.

Can I get this offer again if I've already opened an HSBC Direct account last year?

More specifically, would I need to register for a new Slickdeals account and/or Paypal account?
