Free Checking Account + $100 Sign-Up Bonus
Just caught wind of another $100 sign up bonus for a free checking account through American Eagle Credit Union! Apparently from now until the end of this month prospective customers are eligible for a $100 bonus when they sign up with American Eagle’s free checking account and complete the specified terms.
Unlike Chase Bank’s free checking account promotion or Washington Mutual’s free checking account, this bonus does not come in one lump sum. American Eagle Credit Union breaks down your rewards into four parts (earning $25 per completed section).
Free checking Account Bonus Terms and Conditions:
(as seen on their promo page)

Actually it seems that MTB has actually lowered their bonus to $50 ( there are other options for $25 as well).
Thanks for finding out about the $100 American Eagle Credit Union bonus.
There are some $75 bonuses from Bank of America still around that might be worth a second look..
