- Update 9/22/24: The offer is back through 10/25/24. This offer from BMO Bank is better, honestly.
- Update 3/30/24: The offer is back but instead of $350, it is now $300. And it requires a direct deposit.
I’ll review the current offers below.
PeoplesBank $300 Checking Offer
- What you’ll get: $300 bonus

- When it expires: 10/25/2024
Waive The Monthly Fee
- The Choice Checking account has no monthly maintenance service charge with total deposits of $2,000 or more during each statement cycle.
Fine Print
- Qualifying direct deposits are electronic deposits (such as salary, pension, Government Benefits or other monthly ACH deposits) made into your PeoplesBank Free checking account from third parties.
- If you meet the criteria you will receive $350 in your account within four (4) weeks from meeting the criteria.
- Customers who have had an open PeoplesBank checking account within 12 months of new account opening are not eligible for the offer.

Bottom Line
The bonus amount was previously $250, then increased to $350 and now back down to $300. Nice value but a direct deposit is required. Make a total deposit of $2,000 or more and you won’t have to deal with monthly fees.
