I have also tried to apply a few times for the business account online and the first few times just received a generic error message, but the last time I tried, I received a message that I could not get a business checking account as there are no chase branches in my zip code.

Does anyone know the minimum direct deposit amount that is allowed. Through my company's payroll, I can send my paycheck to up to three different banks and can specify the amount for each. If I can send only a $1 to the chase account and still qualifies as a direct deposit, that would be great. Then I won't have to worry about making those 5 transactions each month.

Date of offer is not date of account openning?
I tried to open a business account at a local branch today. However, the system could not take the coupon code, saying that "the offer is already submitted. One offer per customer". I tried another coupon code and it didn't work either. The branch manager showed me that my previous account was open on Dec. 31, 2009 but their system also shows bonus shipped on 01/10/2010 (maybe the day that I made the debit card transaction). She thought that might be the reason that the system thinks I already took the offer in 2010 instead of 2009. Anyone has similar experience? Thanks a lot.

I've used monthly direct deposits of $100 from my paycheck and gotten miles from Chase accounts by doing so.

I generated a new coupon for 25K CO miles and used that to open a new Chase checking account online. But somehow the system is reporting that this is only an offer of 15K CO miles (12.5K from Chase + 2.5K from CO), is this normal? Or I need to talk to Chase to get it corrected?
Also, it seems I have nowhere to input my OnePASS number, I guess Chase will generate a new one for me.
Thanks!

It might be that only if you have an existing business relationship online you can open online, this is the data point that needs to be verified.

Does anyone know what the chances are that this offer will be extended beyond the 31st deadline into Mileathon territory? Have they previously announced any extensions prior to the actual end of the promo?

Data point:
About a month ago I received an offer in the mail for $125 cash if I opened a Chase checking account. Today I took that offer along with the 25K CO offer to my local Chase bank. I told my new Personal Banker that I'd like to open a personal checking acct. and wondered if I could piggy-back the two offers. She said: I think so. Let's try. She then set about opening my acct. and was able to add both promotions. Hopefully I'll be a happy boy in about 60 days. Thanks for all those who posted their experiences & helpful hints.
I'm not sure why I received the printed offer for the $125 bonus but I also got one last summer from Chase/WaMu.

I need to make sure I do this before the end of March. I just got the 30k CC (Might just get 25k for not adding someone else) and then hopefully doing 2x of these .. personal and business ... to get a nice chunk of miles + what I already have for OnePass

Anyone with experience on which is better, call the 800 number or call a local bank directly to open an account?
i still cant open an account online, so these are my only options.

Just for info, I opened a personal, basic account with a $25 annual fee at the beginning of January. I got the 22,500 miles pretty quickly. The last 2,500 posted 6 weeks later. The $25 annual fee was charged at the end of the 2nd month. I have set up a $200 direct debit from my company for every month, so far have not had any monthly fees (the direct debit is supposed to remove the need for 5 debit card transactions every month if I remember correctly).
At the end of 6 months when it is okay to cancel the account, I will do that, and hope there is another offer and just open it at another nearby branch saying it was more convenient, as if they would care (they love opening accounts).
