- Bonus will be credited to your account within 60 days of meeting the requirements
- All bank account bonuses are treated as income/interest and as such you have to pay taxes on them
Avoiding Fees
FNCB has a free checking account (Simply Free) which qualifies for this bonus, there are no requirements to keep that account fee free. They don’t make their fee schedule publicly available so I am not sure if there is any early account termination fee or not.
Our Verdict
Unfortunately we don’t know much about this deal, if you’ve banked with them before please let us know if it’s a hard or soft pull to open the account, whether it can be funded with a credit card and what triggers the direct deposit requirement.
Because there are so many unknowns about this offer, I wouldn’t recommend it. You can see the offers that we do recommend here: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/best-bank-account-bonuses/ This has been added to our listing of all checking sign up bonuses.
