Earn 100 miles per month for every $1000.00 of the collected balance in your Mileage Checking Account up to the first $200,000. Earn an additional 25 miles per $1,000 in balances over $200,000, WITH NO CAP!

Datapoint: The payroll direct deposit bonus is a big challenge for those with irregular payroll. They granted it with some pressing but I would not attempt it again unless you had a consistent and very steady stream of payroll that marries very well with what was reported as your annual income on the sign up application. If you fall outside of that, I suggest not attempting or plan for have wasted 3months of dd.
No plans to commit to the bill pay nor check card bonuses, the average balance is enough for now.

Yeah - I slogged through the 12 months of bill pay for myself and my wife (took 15 months on my account) and it wasn't easy. They put up plenty of barriers. But I did get the 5K points x2 in the end.
Best bet with BD is to keep a low profile, keep a tiny bit of activity to keep it active, log in once a month to keep the profile active, be happy (very happy!) with the monthly miles, and don't expect much else.

I am a very happy BD customer and enjoying the 20K miles each month.
Does anyone know of a similar company offering United Miles? I have searched high and low without any luck so I am guessing that the answer is no, but its always worth a shot!

log in process change?
I have not logged in since early Sept because we went on a long trip.
I just tried to log in and found the site now has a "Passport Log In" and asked for "Access ID". The Passport Log In stuff was from 2007?! Of course it would not take my user id at all.
I vaguely recall this happened in the past during some late night update or on the weekends.
However right now it is Eastern time 5:40pm and the site is out of mission.
Does anyone have any log in issue lately?
