CIT Bank Platinum Savings: Try to move out money and receive APY boost offer

+67 Deal Score
36,062 Views
Hello
On a laptop via web browser, I tried to initiate outbound wire transfer from CIT bank for an entire balance whole amount and instantly got pop-up screen with offer to boost APY by 0.480% for 12 months.
Try to initiate wire transfer for an entire balance whole amount and see if you can get the same offer.
Good luck.

Just remember that there are two confirmation points during the acceptance process. The first to to take the offer, the second is to confirm the offer.
Wow thanks! I did this on two accounts and thought it was all set and then saw your comment. I didn't realize I had to scroll down to the bottom of that internal window to confirm acceptance.

Is there a minimum amount that needs to be in the account to be eligible for the offer?

No luck for me.
Could be because I am a new customer of maybe 3 months
Or
Could be I have pending balance along with available balance. Will try again after the pending changes to available in 3 days.

Out of my 5 large outbound ACH transfers out of CIT Platinum Savings in the past 12 months, I've been offered a higher APY twice and accepted them. Then each time I waited a day and transferred out anyway, and kept the bump up APY, which showed up in my account details 2 days after accepting it.

Here are screenshots (1) after selecting the transfer amount and choosing the external account, and (2) the confirmation after clicking "Take this offer."

Can someone post here, where to go in the account to confirm that the promotion is active, after you are done confirming everything. I'm trying to find on what tab, can I go into to see the confirmation.
I notice, That after i confirmed everything and activated the promotion, I try doing the transfer a second time, and the promotion promp comes up again, promption you to basically do the activation again. I just want to make sure is active
It takes 3 biznass days to reflect in your acct.

FYI: I was already 8 months into another 12 month interest rate bonus promotion and ended up applying this new offer to my account.

Because I already was already on a promotion that bumped my rate by 0.429%, the new offer increased my rate by 0.051% (to bring my rate up to the +0.480 offer).

So if you are already in the middle of an existing promotion, you cannot stack the promotions, but you can replace it with the new one.
I am in your situation and am half way through an existing promotion.

The fine print on the new offer is confusing. It states your interest rate increase is 0.051%, which brings your new rate up to the promotional rate 4.402%. When the rate changes in the future, your new rate will be the current interest rate + your interest rate increase of 0.051%. Which means you would lose out on 0.429%.

I hope I am wrong and the promotional interest rate increase will remain at an additional 0.48% for 12 months. Can anyone confirm?

Fine Print:
We will increase your interest rate by 0.096% for the next 12 months.1

That means your current new interest rate will be 4.402% and your APY will be 4.50% when your account balance remains $5,000.00 or greater. The current new interest rate will be 0.346 and the APY will be 0.35% when your account balance falls below $5,000.00.2

If the standard, published interest rate on the account changes, your interest rate will move with it, remaining 0.096% higher than the published interest rate tiers for the next 12 months.

1This interest rate increase and 12-month period will replace any previous interest rate increase that may be in place on your account. It will not be added to any previous offers that you may have accepted.

Yeah, I had the same concern. And I also saw the same fine print.

But honestly, I think it's an auto generated fine print term and condition page that is grabbing from incorrect information. I am pretty confident that 12 months at the additional 0.480% is going to ultimately be honored by CIT bank.

If not, it's a first world problem and I'll just live with the consequences.
