I did this promotion last time they offered the $300 bonus. I made sure to initially deposit enough to avoid the monthly service fee then had 1 direct deposit go into the account then wait until the bonus comes. I actually just closed the account this past weekend. Worked great, easy $300
How long did you keep the account open and how long until you got your bonus? Thanks
Wells fargo is a horrible bank. They opened a 2nd credit card line back in 2015 and played it off. I opened my first credit card with them back in 2014 (secured card, was a youngster at the time) and they never gave me my initial deposit back for that card.
Idk, I think it was a targeted mailer ..for a $400 Bonus , with like $2500 in DD after 90 days..something like that ..YMMV .. its about 4 months old or so

Wow, the haters on this deal need to reboot and configure their SD priorities.
Who cares how bad Wells Fargo is as a bank?
Even if WF screwed you in the past, this deal allow YOU the opportunity to TAKE money FROM THEM.
Of course, you have to play by the rules of their game, keep an eye on them, take the money, and close the account.
Rinse and repeat the next time?
I received a $1,500 bonus from them last year by opening a business checking account - another $300 for a credit card. That account was closed soon after the bonus cleared. This is a new bonus - so I will rinse & repeat (it's a separate type of account so I'm qualified to jump on this one too). I'll take it a step further and open one for the spouse and kids...and turn this into a 4 x $235 bonus.
If you can't watch this bank like a hawk, or play within the guidelines and rules, then you should probably close this thread and wait for the next deal to be on the FrontPage
Again, don't hate the player, LOVE the game and enjoy your bonus!!

You can close the account right after you get the bonus.
I usually will transfer ALL money out to another bank via an ACH transfer.
Once all the money is out of the account - call them and ask to close the account.
It's very simple - don't think of it personally for closing the account - it's JUST BUSINESS!
For me, I can set up multiple direct deposits for myself and family members through my work.
There are data points of other types of bank transfers that usually count as a Direct Deposit.

what a dumb ignorant comment. A bank with market cap of $184B & net income of $12B is risky how?
Did u not hear.
Because they were busted fraudulently opening checking, debit, and credit card accounts in their customers names without their knowledge along with insurance accounts without using their customers real contact info so they wouldnt know. then they went on TV and apologized to the entire country begging for people to trust them again only to get busted doing the same thing two more times.
If you look up all the iligal activities Wells Fargo has been involved in in the last 15 years the list is longer than a pocket dictionary and if you think I'm exaggerating look it up it's absolutely unbelievable this bank is still in business

it's unreal
Odd, I tried to open it online and it said that they couldn't verify me and I had to open in branch. I guess I'll just go down the street, but that's a bit annoying.
how long before we can close this account after receiving bonus
You can close it as soon as you receive the bonus and withdraw the money. Closing account is as easy as giving them a call over the phone, there is no need to go into a branch to do so

That said they are the 3rd or 4th biggest bank the USA & in the top 20 in the world. They are not going out of biz soon.
