I called Wells Fargo to confirm the deal. My wife was envious when I got a fat check from the previous deal.
I showed my sympathy by calling to confirm the deal is still around. They renewaled it.

I know you can request one at the branch but I think things like this highlight why I will never be a long time customer.
Without bugging you I would have to wait two weeks for a debit card and PIN for it...are we back in 1999?

Did you send in the account info form and did you include a W-9??
The email they sent has instructions to do this as then next step. Has anyone filled out this form?????
Taken from up above
Offer cannot be:
Paid without a valid W-9 and U.S. taxpayer ID
Combined with any other consumer deposit offer
Reproduced, purchased, sold, transferred, or traded
Anyway, even with a PIN, I could not get through the online banking setup process.
I WENT IN-BRANCH today to reset(actually is probably the same one) the PIN, and the CSR even verified my new PIN before letting me go, and the online signup process STILL "cannot verify your entry". Utter nonsense.
I made 10 - $0.50 Amazon transaction a few days ago.
$250 bonus is showing up pending as of today, I'm hoping it clears soon

I called back to see if they would just let me set up online access over the phone and the CSR said they couldn't, she also said that a PIN isn't required to set up online access but as we all know it is. Eventually she suggested I instead go into a branch for a new PIN or she could send me one that would arrive in 5-7 days.
This is getting ridiculous.
