Our Verdict
Terms state you can’t have received a bonus in the last 18 months. That would exclude you if you did the same bonus last year. Bonus is worse than last time though as you need to tie the funds up for longer. Best case scenario you deposit as close to August 30, 2024 and withdraw shortly after February 28, 2025 (~182 days, but more will be needed to be safe). This account itself earns 3.25% APY and with this bonus you get another ~4% annualized so works out to be 7%+. Better than other high yield options currently but also a bit of work for a somewhat marginal return.
Hat tip to Bockrr
Your webpage states that this offer expires on August 30th. Today is August 29th but I do not see this offer in the Ameriprise website. Has this deal been removed? Has it expired?
William Charles Chuck It doesn’t look like you can become a client, which is required to take advantage of this offer, for free. I doubt many people would pay the fees charged by an Ameriprise Financial Advisor just for a savings bonus.
Please let me know if I’m missing something. I hope I’m wrong, but If I’m right, you should clarify/document the requirements/costs to become an Ameriprise Financial client and add some additional remarks under “Our Verdict”.
Lots of information on the other post for their previous promotion:
[Expired] Ameriprise Financial $500 Savings Bonus – Doctor Of Credit
You do not need to enroll in their financial advisor services or brokerage services to become a client. If you just open a Savings account, I believe there are no fees. What I did was that I just called them, said I wanted to open their Savings, and asked them to create a client ID for me. Then I used the client ID to register for my online account and opened my savings account from there. PaulinTexas
ShawntheShawn👈🏾 Great!! Glad that I misunderstood and there is a way to open an account without having to be a paying client. Thanks 🙂
You still need to be a client before 06/30/2024 to be eligible for the savings bonus though
It does state in the disclosures that “Offers are only available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024 who have not received a savings bonus in the past 18 months.”
William Charles you may want to correct the title for existing customers only ?
I would be happy to be wrong 😉
Natalia where are seeing that? It looks like new customers.
Reading disclosures on the first page that opens up after clicking the link…
Offers are only available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024 who have not received a savings bonus in the past 18 months.
you can do search on webpage for word *existing*
where do you see NEW customers ?
Literally first point on their website contains the phrase “new or existing”.
Check the discloure: it states “Offers are only available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024 who have not received a savings bonus in the past 18 months.”
Actually the first point prior to that says: “Ameriprise clients can apply for this savings account online at anytime”.
You have to already be a client with them before being able to open the “new” savings account or have an existing one with them but haven’t had a bonus in the previous 18 months.
Offers are only available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024 who have not received a savings bonus in the past 18 months.
if you are referring this this ****Deposit New Money into your new or existing Ameriprise® Bank Savings Account by August 30, 2024. See the chart below for details. ****
Maybe you should read entire sentence completely ?
New or existing savings account. It doesn’t say anything about new or existing users/customers in the points. Lrdx
It is in the long list of disclosures and included in The Fine Print section of the post:
Offers are only available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024 who have not received a savings bonus in the past 18 months.
Joey
Edit: just realized you may already know this and was simply clarifying for Lrdx. Sorry.
here is copy and paste:
Offers are only available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024 who have not received a savings bonus in the past 18 months.
Anybody can be an existing customer
Please clarify ?
I never had any accounts with this bank.
I do not see how i can fit into : ONLY available to existing Ameriprise clients as of June 30, 2024
If the hold was for 2-3 months I’d be in. 6 months is a hard pass.
Not worth it for me as will leave money in HYSA that I can withdraw at any time without any interest rate worries.
Get a better return in stocks and crypto in that time frame.
Or way better returns in sports betting.
Nah. Just select the winning numbers on a lottery ticket.
Are you kidding? That’s not a guarantee. Stocks and crypto don’t only go up.
most of here are excluded since we probably did this last year, but new readers beware. As mentioned here, a 5% acct (UFB, Republic Bank of Chicago, Laurel road etc)earn 5% + which would equal 104.00 per month. If my math is correct (I’m no math genius) the 5% acct comes out exactly the same as the bonus, plus the 3.25% interest which is a loser. About plus 300.00, BUT you are tying up funds for over 6 months. They might not pay the bonus until March or April. Please correct if I’m missing something.
I just called their 800 number and was told the offer is only for existing Ameriprise customers.
The math doesn’t seem to make this worth it. A 5% checking/savings/CD account would be a better deal, IMO.
