$100 Westfield Bank Checking Account Bonus
Update: Account seems to be for Ohio residents only, as it’s been the case in the past. If you’re outside Ohio and applied, like myself, it will be automatically denied.
Westfield Bank has a $100 bonus for new accounts. It doesn’t compete with the largest bonuses out there, but what’s special about this one is that it doesn’t really have any requirements. You just need to open an account and you can fund with a credit card.
Bonus Requirements
To obtain the $100.00 (bonus), you must open a new Dream Big Checking account with an initial deposit of at least $100.00 on or before March 13, 2017. The bonus will be credited to the account within 10 days of the account being opened with required minimum opening deposit. The new account must be opened with money not currently on deposit at Westfield Bank, FSB. The new account must remain open for at least 180 calendar days, or the amount of the bonus will be deducted from the account at closing.

- Expires on March 13, 2017

Fees
Dream Big Checking has no minimum balance requirements, no monthly fees, no transaction limitations and up to $12 ATM fee reimbursement each statement cycle. Also free online and mobile banking.
The only fees are a $50 closing fee if you close account before 12 months and a $5 inactivity fee after 396 days.
Conclusion
A super easy bonus. Virtually no requirements. The only hassle is opening an account, as their website is not the most modern out there. You might need to fill out the application for 2-3 times, but it should eventually work. As an additional bonus, you can fund with up to $2,500 with any credit card, which should give you at least another $50 in cashback.
Apply right away if you’re interested. This is too good and most likely won’t last.

Thanks Dee!
For the cc funding are we short this will not post as a cash advance?
*sure
Boston Bobby – always check Doctor of Credit before you try to fund a bank account with a credit card. They have a list of which cards work as purchases at which banks.
Set you CA limit to $0 or just less than what you’re trying to charge, and funding will be declined if it would have posted as cash advance. Or as Dee mentioned, check DoC, he has a well maintained list of data points.
it expires March 13, 2017.
Thanks P
Those are requirements for a higher interest rate. https://www.westfield-bank.com/sites/default/files/CK%20acct%20disclosure%20-%20Dream%20Big%20Checking%20%26%20Gift%20-%20Jan%202017.pdf
