I was reading about a deal that a bank was offering where you could potentially get a free $250 for simply signing up for an account and doing some services such as a direct deposit or auto bill payment feature. I was so tempted to do this as I was thinking at worst I could just close the account once I get the credit if I didn’t like it.
I was just thinking about the hassle though of having so many bank accounts as like a credit card I find it a lot easier to minimize it and not enroll for every card out there just because you get some kind of reward.
