Important Update: This offer has expired. Please review this current Citibank Checking Account Bonus Offer for the new checking promotion from Citibank.
Just open a Citibank regular checking account in a qualifying Citibank banking package by March 31, 2010, to receive this $100 bonus offer.
You must deposit a minimum amount of $1,000 when you open your new Citibank account.
Within the first month of opening your account, you must start making at least 1 direct deposit, OR 2 electronic bill payments, OR 5 non-PIN debit card purchases each month, and continue for 3 consecutive months.
Apply online for this Citibank $100 Checking Account Bonus or apply by phone (1-866-583-6708) and make sure you mention or enter the Citibank promotional code C2CA. This offer is not available at Citibank branches.
It’s important to understand that this offer was sent to Citi credit card members via email, and it is supposedly only available to Citi card members who received the original communication, although it appears that anyone can apply online to qualify for this offer.
However, you may wish to apply by phone to ensure you receive this Citibank Checking Account bonus, just in case Citibank wishes to verify your status as a Citi credit card member.
This offer is not valid for existing Citibank checking customers, and only 1 offer is allowed per customer.
You must open a regular checking account in a Citibank Account or Citigold Account relationship package to qualifying for this banking bonus, and banking fees may apply, so make sure you check the account details for the relationship packages.
Electronic bill payments are those you make using Citibank Online, Citi Mobile, or CitiPhone Banking, but a bill that is paid by making a transfer between linked accounts does not qualify as a bill payment for this offer.
Qualifying debit card purchases must be submitted through the MasterCard Network and are those that either you or a merchant designates as a credit transaction (including purchases you sign for, small dollar purchases that do not require a signature, and use of your MasterCard PayPass) as well as Internet, phone, and mail-order transactions. Qualifying purchases do not include those initiated using a Personal Identification Number (PIN) or other transactions submitted through other payment processing networks.
The $100 cash bonus will be deposited to your Citibank checking account within 120 days from the end of the statement period in which you meet the qualifications.

6000 balance requirement is not mentioned in your promo info, cmon
Hello dee,
Sorry that we didn’t specifically mention there is a $6,000 combined minimum balance requirement to avoid the monthly fee with The Citibank Account package.
We did generally indicate that account fees may apply in the article, but we should have been more specific to avoid any confusion.
The monthly fee is waived if you meet the combined balance. Otherwise the fee is:
$9.50 monthly service fee for Regular Checking ($12.50 in CA, NV, FL, IL, DC, VA and MD).
$12 monthly service fee for Interest Checking ($15 in CA, NV, FL, IL, DC, VA and MD).
The Citigold Account package also has combined monthly balance requirements to avoid the monthly fee of $25.
The Citigold combined balance requirement is $100,000 or $250,000 (including linked Citibank mortgage).
The fee is $25 if you don’t meet the combined balance.
I apologize if this caused any confusion for you or anyone else.
Thank you for pointing this out to us. Max
