-Mar, opened/completed Wells Fargo and received in 3 mts (June) the $325 Bonus.
-Apr, opened/completed Chase and received the $225 bonus immediately (same month) after direct deposit was made.
-Today, opened US Bank and setup direct deposit to receive the $400 bonus after 2 or more deposits totaling $4,000 or more.
I am now researching BMO Harris and their $500 cash bonus when you have a total of at least $7,500 in qualifying direct deposits within the first 90 days.

I cant wait til it's over 3% = )
The transaction is shown as "ACH ID Direct Dep", but the Current APY is still 1.00%.
How long does it take to change to 2.00%?
Or is Sofi considering that the deposit is not a direct deposit?
