WaMU $100 Free Checking Account Offer

This is an old post - click for current rates

One of our readers has alerted us to a Washington Mutual checking promotional offer. If you open a WaMu Free Checking account with a minimum of $100 dollars you will receive the $100 bonus within 12 weeks of opening the account. 

The checking promo offer was sent out in mailings and newspaper filers. We also understand you can walk into a WaMu branch location without a promo code or filer and still get the deal.

Can anyone confirm this for MBR?

We recently received this alert from a WaMu call center employee.

“I work for WaMu call centers and you Need the code to get the promotion. However, a lot people find out you need to deposit $100 to get the promo $100 added and decide its too rich for their blood and actually leave the promotional cards/ codes at the branches. Basically you may get lucky and go to the branch and they may happen to have an unused code sitting around. So go for it you might get lucky. The new promo says you have to set up direct deposit though, like the chase one; it expires in march some time”

Contact us about this deal or any other deals
