PNC Bank is offering a $200-$300 bonus when opening a checking account.
There is only a soft pull on your credit report when opening a checking account at PNC.
If the new accounts are closed within 180 days from opening, there is a $25 service fee.
Both these accounts do have $15-$25 monthly fees, but are waived with qualifying monthly deposits.
To waive the monthly fees, for the $200 Virtual Wallet with Performance Spend account you’ll need either an average monthly balance of $2,000 or more, qualifying direct deposits of $2,000 or more or $15,000 in linked eligible accounts.
For the $300 Virtual Wallet with Performance Select account you’ll need either an average monthly balance of $5,000 or more, qualifying direct deposits of $5,000 or more or $25,000 in linked eligible accounts.
New accounts are not eligible for this offer if any signer has signing authority on an existing PNC Bank consumer checking account or has closed an account within the past 90 days, or has been paid a promotional premium in the past 12 months.
You can only get the bonus on one account, so you can’t double dip and open both accounts.
