If the account is closed within 6 months from the account opening date, the bonus may be forfeited or deducted at closing.


Sounds great!

They collected all my information. SSN, employer, DL, Etc. They sent me a 6-digit security code to my phone, which I correct entered into their website. After entering the correct 2FA code, it asked for it *again*, and an email came through rejecting my checking account application without explanation. Bizarre. Never turned away from an account in my life. Oh well. There goes my personal information into another database.

Chinese Lunar New Year.

In China...

Number 3 is associated with living
Number 8 is associated wealth

A grouping of 3 items is considered extremely lucky.

So, 388 means live wealthy x2 with luck.

Worked for a medsurg company that had a Chinese director of r&d. Our 888 camera was an incredible seller. He named it that, so found out what all the numbers meant in China.

I couldn't figure it out either. Such a terrible website.

I ended up using Zelle to fund the account. Not a great initial impression. Will definitely close this account as soon as possible after receiving the SUB.

Try here ... apply.bankofhope.com/resume

I can't remember what I clicked on, I think it was I am an existing customer. You then sign in and it gives you the option to verify the trial deposits.

If that doesn't work, go to the link again and click not an existing customer. I just can't remember which one I selected, I was half asleep when I did mine but it worked fine.

My trial deposits posted on 1/31 for funding my account. I called in and they said 3 business days after it posted I'll receive an email for me to verify. Very strange system..

Thank you that worked! Can't believe customer support couldn't figure this out nor is there any sort of notification in the online banking system for this.

Although the link show the $388 promo but don't see any place to apply promo code. Did they stop the promo? Also did anyone tried signing in a B&M Branch?

Within 5 miles of a branch. No 2FA authorization by email or phone, but did ask me for personal information (height on DL, in what city did X live?, what color was X, etc....
Got a message saying application is under review and will be contacted in 3 days

EDIT: Rejection email was sitting in my Inbox as I typed my post. Chex sensitive?
More than likely! I just got denied an account with Chartway credit union because of stupid Chex. With no debt and a FICO score of over 830.
