Metropolitan National Bank is offering a free $200 promotional bonus when you open an online checking account and activate direct deposit. You can apply for an account online and the bank deal is available nationally. You will most likely have to mail or fax a copy of your driver’s license or a home utility bill to verify your address. In order to qualify you have to open a checking account, set up direct deposit with them which needs to be at least $500, and you must continue to use direct deposit with them for at least 6 months. You get paid within a month of your first direct deposit and there’s no promo code needed when you open your account.
Metropolitan National Bank does do a hard credit pull when you open an account with them. Their checking accounts are pretty good actually. There’s no monthly fees, no minimum balance requirement, and if you get charged to use an ATM they reimburse you. Metropolitan National Bank is based out of New York and is a FDIC insured bank.
