Bank of Montreal (BMO) has an interesting though odd deal going on right now. When you open (select) chequing and savings accounts with them, you can qualify for up to a $200 bonus cash offer!
If you have been planning on changing banks anyway, this might be a nice incentive to get on it and earn yourself $200 in the process.
You have three chequing accounts to choose from.
- Performance Plan: $13.95/m (Free with a balance of $3,000 or more) - Get $100 Bonus
- Premium Plan $25/m (Free with a balance of $5,000 or more) - Get $100 Bonus
- Plus Plan $9.95/m (Free with a balance of $2,000 or more) - Get $50 Bonus
To qualify for the bonuses, you must open a new chequing account before July 31, 2013, and add at least one pre-authorized bill payment and one direct deposit on the account.
Then you pair them up with your choice of two savings accounts:
- Smart Saver Account - Get $100 Bonus
- Premium Rate Savings Account - Get $100 Bonus
To qualify for the bonuses you must open a new savings account by July 31, 2013 and make a $10,000 deposit by July 31, 2013.
As I mentioned above: this offer may be best for those changing banks, as a $10,000 deposit is not just petty change. But I do know how often people get fed-up with banks, and added incentives like a $200 cash bonus can be a really nice feature if you already want to change banks due to mismanagement, poor customer service, high fees, etc.
Have you banked with BMO? What do you think of them?
