My last attempt at using a 15% cb bankamerideal at Newegg failed. The cb never posted, so I returned the item. Lots of problems getting the cb are listed in this expired deal thread:

Bankamerideals, if you can get them to work at all, are typically online only.

They work like a cash back website. You have to access the site from their link and keep the right referral info in your browser, then buy, and pay with your BofA credit card.

I haven't had much luck with them. I typically use a different cash back website.

Sounds like enough of a deal to nearly max out the $10 on Astrobot at either Playstation Store or Gamestop at current MSRP of $59.99 (+ tax in some cases).

The cash back only covers $66.67 ($10 / 15%) of purchase, so 1 full-priced game or controller + some random accessories.

Or on Newegg they have refurbished hard drives. I believe the best one under $67 is 10TB: https://www.newegg.com/hgst-ultra...6822231554

Can you be more precise?

I use BofA/Merrill for my IRA, local checking, representative payee checking, and credit card. Have platinum honors status.

Pretty happy in general. Bank amerideals kinda suck and are useless, but BofA/Merrill fees are reasonable and competitive with online brokers and banks. But, unlike an online broker, I can make an appointment for local face to face support. I've done that a couple times and they've always been good and helpful.

I still don't use them for things they suck at, like savings accounts and CDs (I go elsewhere for that), but I've generally had good experience with them.

I used to Bank of America over 15 years. Had a small business account with them.
BoA would:
delay processing of deposited checks until balance goes into minus then slap you with $50 overdraft fees
OD fees would be charged consecutively for every transaction thereafter.

This was done intentionally and BoA got fined something they didn't care because they'd already made 10 times what they'd been penalized. It was some time ago but I'm never going back to these scumbags. People responsible moved on to other banks after they got caught but apparently kept at their scams cuz Wells Fargo just got caught making new accounts and credit cards with client information.

I got 3 out of 4 orders credited last time (already have the money deposited in account too after pending for a bit). Still waiting to hear back about last order which didn't show up in pending history, which is weird bc I used same card for all orders

I only made one purchase, which never made it to pending.

What I don't understand is why BankAmerideals has to use the referrer information like a CB website. They have you credit card record and can prove you made a purchase from Newegg without it. That's how most AMEX cashback deals work.

I understand it for third party cb sites - they don't have your credit card record, so it's they only way they can track the purchase.
