Free Apple Products for Every Checking Account Opened at American Community Bank

The rates aren’t stated in their promotional page, but the American Community Bank is giving away free iPod players for those who would open a checking account with them. This is in commemoration of their 10th anniversary. It’s probably the best checking account for you if you’re into Apple products and if there’s an American Community Bank where you live or work.

When you open any of the bank’s checking accounts with a deposit of at least $100, you get to have a GPX Home radio, complete with an iPod connection. Once you open an account and complete $500 worth of direct deposits, you get another Apple gift, this time an iPod Shuffle with 2GB of memory.

Want more? You’ll probably think of this account as the best checking reward account in the market if you find out what’s in store for you once you enroll your account to their Free Online Banking and Bills to Pay programs, and set the account so you’ll pay three of your bills automatically every month. The next free gift is an upgrade of your 2GB iPod to a 4GB model.

Last July 3, the bank also gave away an iPad as their grand prize for the raffle draw. Eligibility for the raffle draw also required a newly opened checking account. While the iPad is no longer up for grabs, there’s still plenty of iPods for new checking account applicants.

Bankrate.com’s ratings for this bank’s soundness and safety are quite a mix. The branch in Illinois was rated four stars out of five, New York’s branch received three out of five, and Minnesota’s branch received a poor rating with only one star out of five. For a bank that’s only been around for 10 years, this is quite an expected turn up.

Despite the mixed reviews, the American Community Bank is still a member of the FDIC. It has a federal insurance indicated in FDIC Certificate #35033.
