Thoughts
The move here is to start with the Wells Fargo – $500 Checking Bonus. Complete that offer, then upgrade to the Premier checking account. Open a brokerage to store the funds in until the promotion pays out.
I recently did the standard checking offer. It paid within a week of competition. In addition, once you’re a Premier checking customer you should get an in app offer for the 100k Premier Autograph card. I was also approved for that.
