Our Verdict
Bonus itself seems good, I very much doubt it will last until the end date so I would recommend applying ASAP if interested. According to the old thread we have it seems like they might be ChexSystems sensitive. We will still add this to our list of the best bank account bonuses.
Finder came good on the Axos promotion in the end. They have also agreed to donate $10 to our charity partner ‘Cure Alzheimer’s Fund‘ (will have more on this in a separate post) for deals such as this completed when clicked from Doctor of Credit (we tried to negotiate a better deal for you guys, but this wasn’t possible unfortunately). To be clear we receive $0 and zero other benefits.
