I received my $225 bonus yesterday…5 days after my $500 direct deposit posted.

Did you have a "real" DD from employer or use another transfer method that counted as DD?

$300 would surely be better, but do you recall when they last offered that? I'm wonderin if 225 now is better than a theoretical 300 later. Applause
Yep, I got it in August 2020, it ended October 2020. 300 checking + 200 savings + 100 for doing both at the same time for a nice deal of 600 Smilie

I opened a Chase account in November 2021 and sent my employer my new bank details to earn the $225 bonus. My employer didn't change my direct deposit account information in time last month and they sent it to the same, old account this month too, so I can't think of a way to get another direct deposit in time before January 31. Can anyone recommend a way to get a direct deposit into my account in time to earn the deposit? Thanks

Can confirm that opening a T-Mobile Money account, and then pushing $500 from there into Chase works and counts as direct deposit for bonus purposes.

Yes, that's how I was able to get the bonus without DD.

Does it mean same thing work from another bank other than T-mobile Money account? Just transfer $500 from another bank to Chase account counts as direct deposit for the bonus? I have 53 bank account. Can transfering $500 to Chase account from 53 bank account qualify for bonus?

How about setting up direct deposit to receive tax return to Chase account?

Similar experience here. Very prompt.
Remember to keep your account open for 6 months or they would deduct the bonus at the time of closing (unless you close at 0 balance but then you become disqualified for future promos for a time period).

No. They don't count ACH transfers as direct deposit. They mention it as well.

Thanks for replying, but the other guy confirmed he could transfer money from T-mobile bank to Chase and it qualified for the bonus...?
