This promotion was advertised at here (St. Louis Post-Dispatch). The Chicago Business also mentioned this promotion titled “National City Bank Sweetens Stakes to Snare Retail Customers“. However, you can not find the advertisement of this promotion at NationalCity.com. It seems that this is a branch-only event. You might need to go to your local National City Branch to request more information about this promotion and see whether you are eligible to the $300 offer.

Here are some points you need to know:

$100 bonus: Set up direct deposit of your paycheck/pension/social security (at least $400) and having 10 check card purchases within 60 days of account opening.

Additional $100 bonus: Keep the direct deposit and complete an additional 25 check card purchases by 3/31/2010.

The 3rd $100 bonus: Keep the direct deposit and complete an additional 25 Check Card purchases by 5/31/2010.

It seems that all of the 3 $100 bonuses are easy to get. You need to make direct deposit of $400 or more and use National City Check Card to make purchases until 05/31/2010. This offer ends on November 28, 2009.

Hurry up! Visit your local National City Bank to get more information. (Last year, I saw my local National City Bank was offering small flyers about this $300 promotion.)

Important points:

• Your friends MUST use the referral link within the email sent from this screen to ensure they get the $25 welcome bonus.
• We will send the email on your behalf, so that the “From” field will display your name and the email address we have for you.
• For privacy reasons, we are not able to disclose which of your friends has opened an account with us or the initial deposit amount.
• The $25 bonus is only available for new Customers opening a new account as a primary owner.

If you have friends or family members who have an account at ING Direct, you can ask them to refer you and both of you can earn bonuses from ING. Or you can contact me via sending email to cardoffer8 at gmail com. Both of us will earn some money from ING. Also please clarify which account you want to be referred, orange savings account or electronic orange account.
