I received an e-mail saying I would receive a $75 sign up bonus if I sent in my paperwork by May 31, 1999.
Explaination:
Tried to sign up on the web to get the 5000 point bonus for $1000 deposit. Everything worked until I tried to print my application, which "overloaded" my printer!? So I sent them an e-mail and they sent me an application through the mail. I held on to it for a bit.
Meantime I saw the 2500 here on the FT for opening an account and that it would be 3x if I did it through clickrewards. I did that, but again everything worked but I could not print the final papers, but my account number etc. was provided me.
Taking the two above together, I used the form etrade sent (mostly prefilled in) and added my account # and reference # etc from clickrewards along with my check and sent it off.
The following day, I received the email saying I would receive $75 if I responded by 5/31.
Summary to date, I have the 7500 points credited and will have to wait the two weeks to see if the $75 dollars get posted!!!
Sign me happy and waiting for more (greedy)
