As i've emailed you, I only keep $1 in both accts. Don't forget that citi considers these promo bonuses as interest. sun,

It doesn't really matter since I can't deposit $2500 anyway. Here is a link to my post about a $25 bonus for this same account which doesn't require a minimum deposit. <a href="http://bankbonuses.info/2007/03/05/citibank-ultimate-savings-account-25-bonus/" rel="nofollow">$25 Citi Ultimate Savings Bonus</a> When I click on the link I don’t see anything about the bonus.

I am fine with conditions such as an initial deposit of $2,500 and maintaining the account for 90 days, but I don't feel very comfortable when the account is tied to another account that requires a minimum monthly balance otherwise a fee will be imposed. I went through the email I got for this Ultimate savings account and found the offer is quite simple. So I feel it's a better choice than the e-Savings account, though the rate is slightly lower.

Citi has lots of different promotions out there and they all at first glance look similar or the same. The promotion CS2C which ends 31MAR is for regular checking and e-savings to get $50. This does not require min balance or direct deposit. So long as the accounts both remain open, there is no monthly maint. fee and no monthly min.
