Consumerism Commentary: $25 Bonus for Opening ING Direct Electric Orange Checking Account

  • mapgirl · 2 years ago
    And when you run out, send the overspill my way! :-D

    After making subtle inquiries I found out a lot of my friends have ING savings accounts already, so I still have a lot of those too. At this point, I'm not sure finding anyone who doesn't have at least a savings account will be difficult.

    I know some people have been unhappy with ING's checking service or think you can get better rates from other online banks, but I find ING to be so easy to use, that I won't switch. (The Sun's Financial Diary asked me why I wouldn't. I don't know. I must be mental not to chase online rates.)

    I'd be interested in opening an account and MapGirl I'm still one of the very few out there that doesn't have an ING savings account.

    Send the account opening bonuses my way if you still have them :)

    Fellowes: It's on the way.

    I haven't looked yet, but I found out the hard way that the referral bonus on the Orange Savings has a time limit, and if you try to use it after that, ING will quietly fail to tell you that the bonus no longer applies as you set up your account. Make a point of checking if the Electric Orange referrals work the same way. I filed a complaint telling them they should at least warn you when you come in on an expired referral, but I've heard nothing on that point.

    I'm opening an account very soon and would love the $25 bonus.

    Well I was sold until reading that I can't be a current ING customer... bummer.

    Please send me one of the $25 credit offers for opening an Electric Orange Account.

    Thanks,

    hi, I'd like one of the referrals please, if anyone has one..

    thanks..
    moving some money out of an uninsured money market fund, to the FDIC-insured ING account. The recent cavortings of the market have me worried.
  • Flexo · 2 years ago
    All referral requested thus far have been sent. Thanks! If you don't see the emails yet, be sure to check your spam folder if you have one. Remember that your initial deposit has to be at least $250 in order to receive the bonus.

    Hi Flexo: I need a referral for orange checking accounts. Thanks a lot
  • Kristin · 2 years ago
    I'd love to have a referral as well (I will be opening an account today if possible). Thanks!
  • Patty · 2 years ago
    I'd also like a referral if possible. Thanks.
  • Rikki · 2 years ago
    Hi Flexo,
    I'd love one of those referrals. I was planning on getting a checking account with ING anyway. Please send one my way.

    Thanks.
  • Rikki · 2 years ago
    Thanks for the email Flexo. I already have a savings account with them, so I guess I don't qualify.

    I WOULD LOVE A REFERRAL FOR THE 25 DOLLAR BONUS.
  • DanaL · 2 years ago
    I would really love a code for the @25 bonus. My daughter just opened a checking with over $400 and I opened a savings with $25, but we now both want to open an orange savings and get the bonuses. Please let me know what to do.
  • Vicky · 2 years ago
    I am interested in the orange too! I've been thinking about opening an electric orange checking and would love to take advantage of the $25 referral. Please send one my way if you have any left. Thx
  • Nathan · 2 years ago
    I am about to open an Electric Orange account, and stumbled across the bonus offer.

    If you have any left over, please let me know.

    Thanks!
  • dacamp · 2 years ago
    I am interested in opening an ING account and would appreciate a referral code and any insight on how to know if it has expired or not. Thank you
  • alyxje · 2 years ago
    I would like a code.

    Thanks!!
  • Patty · 2 years ago
    I too have extra referrals. So if you send me an e-mail, I can help you out.
  • movingbody · 2 years ago
    I have plenty of referrals left. If you'd like the $25 bonus, please send your email address and name to me.
  • shaker · 2 years ago
    can somebody pl send a referral link to hydreal at gmail dot com?
  • Mike · 2 years ago
    I'd also like a referral link to:

    mike2254 at hotmail dot com

    Thanks.
  • Patty · 2 years ago
    I can send referral links but I need your first and last name and e-mail address. This is what ING asks for, once I input the information the link is sent directly to your e-mail address.
    I can send electric orange checking or savings whichever you prefer.
  • Mike · 2 years ago
    Hey Patty,

    Awesome. Although I'd rather send that information via email. So I won't get multiple invites to ING from people surfing.

    Could you send me a quick email at: mike2254 at hotmail.com so I can respond with the details?

    Thanks
  • G · 2 years ago
    I would also like a referral, and will take the first one I receive. Send to spamnn at gmail.
