OCCU allows credit card funding. I made initial deposit with credit card for $2,500. Soft pull ChexSystems on day 1 and soft pull Experian on day 86. Received $100 bonus on day 90. $50 referral bonus available, but flagged as spam?
Clicked on the link today and it doesn’t exist. Called and was told that this offer was expired on the 30th of last month even though the expiration is for the 15th of May. Was told to present offer in the branch to ask if it could be honored.
I have an immaculate banking record and it didn’t work for me.
I submitted about 30 lines of highly personal information online, and after all of that time and trouble — I even provided highly personal information on my beneficiary — it did not go through. Online banking is just not for me. It’s feels like they are fishing for personal information.
