are there any other checking promotion?

I am just wondering is there any promotion for new checking (not chase) and reward you hotel program points?

This gives you 15,000 Priority Club Points for each account opened. Limit one business and one personal account for a total of 30,000 points. Remember once you do this you can no longer get the continental promo for 25000miles for each account open but if you need hotel points this is one option. Check out the priority club website first to see the redemption rates. There are limited pointbreaks which allow you to redeem hotels for 5000 points a night but generally its between 15 - 30000 a night.

Good luck!

Yeah, sad that I have got one checking 2010 with bonus, so I guess I can not get another one?

so is there any other (no-chase) checking with bonus?

Remember it is one for business and one for personal so if you have burned one opportunity you can still use the other.

Sometimes AA has the similar checking but no promotion. Chase maybe the easiest one to get.

Good reminding, so can I try the business one without a real biz?

Wow. I never thought of doing that, probably a good idea though. I'm careful about anything I use my SSN for though.

EverBank (Priority Club):

http://www.everbank.com/sams/SAM-IHG...?referid=12480

You can also open an account with BankDirect to earn American Airlines AAdvantage Miles. This account doesn't offer a large up front bonus, but provides a monthly stream of miles in lieu of interest:

http://www.aa.com/i18n/AAdvantage/pa...bankDirect.jsp

AA miles can then be converted to Priority Club or Hilton HHonors points etc here:

http://www.aa.com/i18n/AAdvantage/pr...edeemMiles.jsp

Read carefully to be sure you understand the transfer ratios, limits and fees.

There is an existing thread discussing the two banks that offer AA miles. The bank mentioned in the thread title (Guaranty Bank) was shut by the FDIC and acquired by Compass Bank. Existing account holders are still receiving miles, but I do not know if Compass is accepting new AA accounts. However, the thread also includes information about BankDirect.
