DISQUS

shottagyal · 1 year ago

Flexo,
I have a ton of referrals, but sadly, no one to refer. Would it be possible to get some of your overspill?

Thanks,

Flexo · 1 year ago

Shottagyal and anyone else who has links: Yes, I will post them once we've cycled through the 50 existing links (I've only listed 20 above so far). Email me so I can put your name on the list -- but don't send me the links yet. I don't know how long it will take to get through the 50 existing links and I don't want yours to expire before I'm able to post them.

Aaron Griffin · 1 year ago

Any way to take advantage of this if I'm already a customer?

Flexo · 1 year ago

Aaron: Existing customers should have the "Refer a Friend" link at the bottom of account information pages, with an opportunity to earn $10 per referred sign-up.

michelle · 1 year ago

I used OSA10 - 01 was already used

benefitsme · 1 year ago

HSBC is the one to go with - paying 3.55%

Paul · 1 year ago

How do you go about getting the links that you post on your site? Do you email all the referrals to your own email address & then copy the individual links?

The Debt Defier · 1 year ago

Alas, if I could only convince 50 people to sign up! I'm still trying to convince them that it's an easy $25! I've got some extras if you'll take 'em. :)

Flexo · 1 year ago

Paul: The best way to keep it organized, as I learned today, is to use your own email address as the recipient.

Debt Defier: I'll definitely be looking for more links to share once I've gone through 25 OSA and 25 EO links. I'll send you an email.

Jonathan · 1 year ago

Aaah, getting 50 people to sign up is too much work (unless I had my own site with as much traffic as yours, Flexo). HSBC, ING-Direct and GMAC are all clocking in at 3% +/- 0.05% today.

By the way, what's with the ad on your site for "ThinkCash" ? Is it in your best interest as a PF blogger to propagate this sort of payday lending (with interest rates from 87% - 365% APY, as quoted from their website frontpage).

While the ad doesn't count as an "endorsement", you still will generate revenue based upon some idiots click through to a site that could potentially keep them in the vice-grips of debt.

Oh well, business is business as they say.

Gerry · 1 year ago

Flexo,

I am confused...I sent the referral to myself. Do I send 10 referrals to myself?

Then how do I get them to you to post?

Thanks!
Gerry

Flexo · 1 year ago

Gerry and Jonathan: I responded via email.

credit addict · 1 year ago

benefitsme: HSBC is paying 3.05%, not 3.55%.

Suz · 1 year ago

thanks, Suz

Flexo · 1 year ago

Suz: I sent you an email. I've also updated the page with fresh links.

Joshua · 1 year ago

Flexo:

I sent myself an email using the referral tool and I don't see a code anywhere? How can I get the code to you? Thanks.

Josh · 1 year ago

Flexo,

I have 50 referrals to provide, but I am unsure of how to get them to you? Do I email myself and send you the code, or just have them directly sent to you?

Thanks for any help you can provide...

- Josh

stalemate · 1 year ago

I have some referrals to provide as well. Please email me when you need them.

Thanks.

casey · 1 year ago

Just tried OSA32 and OSA40 and both said were expired. Would love to open very soon with a link Please advise.
thanks for this service.

Flexo · 1 year ago

Those links appear to be valid at this time. If they didn't work for you try another one listed above.

casey · 1 year ago

Just tried again using OSA38 and received the following:
The reference code you have entered is not in our records. It may have been entered incorrectly or may no longer be a valid promotion. Please double check and correct if necessary. If you are having difficulty you can call an ING DIRECT Sales Associate at 1-888-ING-0727 between 8AM and 8PM.

Flexo · 1 year ago

Casey: You don't need to enter any reference code. Just follow the instructions in the post above. Click on one of the links. As long as the top of the next page doesn't say that the link is expired or invalid, then yu're good to go. Don't enter any reference codes.

charlie · 1 year ago

i have ing referrals please add me to your list !

Nancy · 1 year ago

Hello, Please send me an email describing what I can do to gain money this way with you.

anna · 1 year ago

I am an ING Direct customer and would love the referrals. Please let me know when and how to post my referral links once yours expire.

I'm a directTV custom and they have a 50-50 promotion. Every new customer get $50 thru my referral and I get $50 for tell my friend. Would there be a way to promote my referral code? If so, please email me I will gladly provide you with my codes. I also have an AT&T referral code I would like to share. Thanks.

sarah · 1 year ago

HI!

I am ING Direct customer as well and I do not know 50 people to send referrals too.

What do I need to send to you?

Thanks for your help!

Flexo · 1 year ago

For everyone who has commented, the waiting list is not open right now. Watch Consumerism Commentary for an announcement when the list is open again.

sarenay · 1 year ago

I have links. When you are ready for them, please contact me.Thank you!

Barbara Briddes · 1 year ago

I opened an account using the link OSA99. It started out fine. When I started the application this was at the top of the page, "Start savings with a great rate. To receive your $25 bonus, open and fund your Orange Savings Account with at least a $250 initial deposit." BUT when I finished I was given this message, "We're sorry, but in the time in between when you started your application and now, the referral/gift has expired. So, no referral bonuses or gift funds can be paid."
What's wrong?

Flexo · 1 year ago

It sounds like someone used the same code as you at roughly the same time and they finished their application first. I've never heard of that happening before. I would call ING Direct and talk to customer service about that. That link does not appear to be expired yet.

Flexo · 1 year ago

As of Thursday, 9:30 PM ET, the waiting list is now open. Join the waiting list here.

Midoric · 1 year ago

OSA108 is now used. Thanks.

Flexo · 1 year ago

Riz · 1 year ago

Flexo · 1 year ago

The waiting list is currently closed. I will post a message on Consumerism Commentary if and when I re-open the waiting list. Thanks!

Glymmar · 1 year ago

I opened an ING Checking account with one of your links and I'm looking for one for my wife. If you or any of your readers have a referal link she could use, I would appreciate it. Or if you deem it appropriate, I can send you my referal info from ING.

Thanks,
Brian ~aka Glymmar

Joshua · 1 year ago

Glymmar:

Great to hear you signed up! Why not do what I did with my wife... refer her to yourself and you get the $10 and she gets the $25!! If you don't let me know and I'll give you one. Have a great day!

- Joshua

Glymmar · 1 year ago

Joshua
Doh!
Thanks for the suggestion. It did cross my mind at one point, but I was unsure if ING would allow it.

Thanks again,
Brian ~aka Glymmar

Roger · 1 year ago

Hello! I also opened my orange savings account from one of your links maybe 2 months ago or so and have been reading this site since.

Flexo · 12 months ago

Demetri: I've posted new links.

Flexo · 11 months ago

If you'd like to share your own ING Direct referral links, read this information. I'm now looking for Consumerism Commentary readers to share links by adding their names to the waiting list.

Amit · 11 months ago

Hi Flexo,

Thanks so much

Matthew · 10 months ago

Hi Flexo,
Great site. Please add me to the waiting list.

Thanks,
Matthew

Steffen · 10 months ago

Just to confirm -- does there need to be any reference to the $25 bonus on the application page itself once you get there? The links i clicked took me to an application page but there was no mention of $25.

Flexo · 10 months ago

At the top of the application, where you first enter your name and address, you should see this:

Start savings with a great rate. To receive your $25 bonus, open and fund your Orange Savings Account with at least a $250 initial deposit.

Steffen · 10 months ago

Thanks -- just opened one and got the $25. I hadn't gotten far enough on the form. Probably will be able to supply some links myself.

brandonjc · 10 months ago

I have some referral links available if you need more.

nickheff · 10 months ago

hey great article, i just opened my account w/ 250. But i dont have anyone to refer.. could you post my link on your page?

bluehash · 10 months ago

I have a few referral links too. Let me know. Thanks!

Amit · 10 months ago

Hi Flaxo,

It Looks like all your referrals have exhausted.

Brett · 10 months ago

I also have referrals. Please add me to the list.
Thanks!

Flexo · 10 months ago

To everyone who has commented recently: I currently have more than enough names on the waiting list, so I'm not taking any new names right now. I will post a message on Consumerism Commentary when the waiting list is open once again, so make sure you're watching for it.

Curtis · 9 months ago

OSA305 was already expired. I used OSA311 to open my account. Thank you.

Also I have some referrals once you start accepting more names for your waiting list.

TheDude · 9 months ago

OSA 305, 311, 313 are expired. I used link OSA314 successfully. To what email address should i write my referal link to get it posted on this website? And also, how come all the electric checking accounts links are crossed out?

Flexo · 9 months ago

Thanks. All new referral links are now posted for OSA. The waiting list for those wishing to offer new referrals is currently closed as I have a long list of people already waiting. I'll announce on Consumerism Commentary once the waiting list is open again.

TheDude · 9 months ago

What about the electric accounts links, they are all crossed out. Where exactly will you annonce that the wait list is open again?

Thank you

Flexo · 9 months ago

The Electric Orange links aren't used frequently enough for me to ask visitors to provide them any more. You can visit this website, Consumerism Commentary, to be alerted when the waiting list is open again. It may be easier to subscribe to the RSS feed so you are alerted automatically.

Laura Mackie · 9 months ago

Hi!

Are you still reposting people's ING referrals?? I'm in the process of using one of the referral links you have up right now and would love if you could put mine up!! Thanks for your time!!

Sincerely,

Laura

Flexo · 9 months ago

Glad you are able to use the links! Right now, the waiting list for posting referrals links is full. I'll announce on Consumerism Commentary once it is open again, but it will be several months.

jaylincee · 8 months ago

I tried the referral links 333 thru 337 listed above and all were expired. Are there any links waiting to be used?

Thank you!

Flexo · 8 months ago

I'll put up some new links tonight, thanks! I have many on the waiting list.

Laura · 8 months ago

The links are expired for the savings. Please post new links. Thanks!

AHK83 · 5 months ago

Flexo,
This is an awesome thing you are doing with sharing ING referrals! I am going to try to add your website to my daily reading. Listening to your recent Podcast now.
I have exhausted my family referrals to ING and I would like to use your website if there is room. Please send me instructions on how to get my referrals listed. Thank you!

rtbeal · 5 months ago

Could somone add some more links?

Flexo · 5 months ago

New links are now posted, as of July 16, and more to come.

Ryan · 5 months ago

Is the waiting list open right now? I'm confused about how to send you the links.

Flexo · 5 months ago

No, the waiting list is not currently open.

Ryan · 5 months ago

Flexo,

I signed up through one of the links you posted and never received my $25. I called ING Direct and they said that the link must have been used too many times, so there is no way I can get my $25. :(

Flexo · 5 months ago

Each link can be used only once. Did you check to make sure you didn't receive an expired link warning when you were filling out the application? Did you deposit at least $250 in you initial funding deposit? The links will work correctly if you follow those two guidelines.

Ryan · 5 months ago

Yes and yes. I received no warning and I deposited $250.

Daniel · 5 months ago

Hello Flexo, I would love to get on the waiting list to post some of my referral links for the savings and checking accounts. Please email me and let me know how I may do so, thank you very much! -Daniel

Michael · 5 months ago
