Consumer Narrative
On XX/XX/XXXX, I opened a Regions LifeGreen Checking account in-branch after receiving a {$400.00} offer in the mail. The offer required completing certain activities to receive the bonus, including XXXX debit card transactions and enrolling in online statements, which I did. According to Regions, they tried depositing the {$400.00} bonus on XX/XX/XXXX and the account was considered to be in a " soft-close '' status because it had a {$0.00} balance (? ) so the {$400.00} bonus payment wasn't completed, even though I have a recurring deposit every two weeks. I called in about not receiving the offer and confirmed I had completed all other activities except for the account being at a {$0.00} balance at the time they tried depositing the payment, but at no time was I informed that to be considered " in good standing '' the account had to be positive at all times. Regions was unwilling to bend on this " condition '' of theirs which at no time had been relayed as part of the offer, nor had I received any notification about this new " condition '' throughout the 90-day offer period. I am asking the CFPB to please step in and have Regions honor the marketing incentive, as it seems disingenuous that their internal " soft-close '' status is what rejected the new account offer, and it was never mentioned that that was a 100 % requirement to actually RECEIVE the bonus after having completed all other prerequisite activities.
