Applied online, denied with 28+/24 Chex inquiries. There appeared to be the option to fund up to $500 with a credit card for the account I was applying for, CareFree checking

“Offer is not valid for Fidelity Bank clients with an existing Fidelity Bank checking account and is limited to new checking account clients only.”
Does anybody know how they’re defining “new”? As in ever, or a certain amount of time?

Sean X I don’t but with most banks it seems to be a year with a few it’s lifetime. I don’t see any particular time period in the terms. Before I applied I tried my old login and got the message “The Username and/or Password you entered does not match our records. Try again.” which made me assume I was no longer in their system, it had been 2 years since I had an account. I got denied with them citing Chex but I have done a lot of accounts recently.

Just want to echo that we’ll never see that $500 promo again, so if you want this, go for it. The bank shut that promo down real quick, and internally it was widely considered a big mistake.

Applied; went to pending. I’m an educator in MA so the $200 bonus is worth doing.
