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.

what extra funds!
that's what worries me, they see a bunch of account closings as soon as the bonus hits and they withdrawal the offer, I wish we could work together here, I'm not crazy about big banks but they aren't asking for much here so I'm trying to be fair it these offers will likely never turn up again or they'll have much stricter requirements.

And yes, you can write a check to yourself and mail it in.
Hopefully this time frame helps for those wondering how long the turnaround takes.
Time to close this account. Wells Fargo is awful. Monthly fines for not having recurring balance transfers? No thanks.
i just made 10 AGC reloads over the weekend so hopefully i'll get the $250 bonus before this week ends.

Some haven't filled out any paperwork but have received the $250. I called and they said I need to fill it out? Does anyone have other data points?
