I just pushed like $5k from Fidelity Bloom and it cleared at USBank but under “track your rewards progress” it is a blank page 🙁

does it have to be a wire transfer to count as a push? The only option was that annoying FinCity linked account push which I used… Help.

Never use a wire to simulate a direct deposit. You did it right. Just need to wait. Sad Dayz In USA

mypoints and SB were not working for me (redirect issue) so used Inboxdollars. For P2 I may use Upromise although Upromise gives me trouble in tracking most of the time.

So this would exclude NJ (which I don’t think has a branch), correct?

If you do the savings account too you can double dip on the CC funding – although my second charge got flagged as fraud (2*250 in the same second so I don’t blame them) – if you try to to double up on the 250, maybe do 250 and 249.

Has anyone had trouble with BillPay and this account?

I set up 2 bill payments that went out electronically. A few days later I tried paying one of them (amex) and it says it’s being sent by check and I must pick a far out pay date. Now any payment I set up is like that, no matter the payee. Called US Bank and there’s no problem on their end. It’s the billpay company’s problem, Fiserv. I was told to call them and can’t get to a human. Hoping it resolves itself once that first check payment is cashed.

So I just got approved a few days ago for this account, and I am currently waiting on my debt card in the mail, but does anyone know how i find my account number? Usually banks send it along with the deposit and overdraft agreements through email, but i cant find it. Im trying to get my online banking setup, so I can send this 8 K. Thanks

10/8 – Opened Account (code: 2024JUL)
10/8-1/6 – real DD (total of $9000+)
1/19 still no bonus

I have called them, and they confirmed that the code (2024JUL) is attached to my account. Is anyone in the same situation?

The terms say “You must also complete two or more direct deposits within 90 days of opening your account that total”. So maybe try doing one more DD.

Sorry for the confusion; I did multiple DDs of a total of $9000+

There should be a link that says “Track your rewards progress” on top of your checking/savings page. I am assuming that is referring to signup rewards? Does yours show anything because I just did one push that cleared but the page is blank…

Now I see why I never got into churning.

They still technically have until around 2/8/25 to pay out based on your account open date, so I wouldn’t worry too much until that date comes around.

Swagbucks Question: I remember seeing this Smartly account on my Swagbucks last year and as I was not eligible for the offer (under 12 months) I ignored. Now since the offer has been extended by US Bank I am eligible again but the offer in my Swagbucks seems to have disappeared. If I logout of Swagbucks I can see the offer. The link on this page takes me to a broken page (error: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS). Any idea if the Swagbucks offer would show up again? Or any way I can get this offer on Swagbucks?

Other than trying on a different browser, not really. Desiboy

Probably just need to use a different portal other than SB. $95 via MyPoints looks good.

Hi all, I have a question regarding the additional bonus of “$80 Swagbucks.” It is predicated on that I successfully open the U.S BANK checking accout online, correct? If I go to a branch to open the acct, I cannot do the Swagbucks.

Correct. Over the phone applications and in-branch are not going to get the Swagbucks offer. Geogeo
