$25 ING Direct Orange Savings or Checking Bonus

January 11, 2008

The last time I put out for referrals, I asked you to email me and was fairly successful. This time, though, I’m cutting out the middle-man (me) and giving the link directly to ING Direct for you to sign up for an Orange Savings or Electric Orange Checking accounts.

The bonus for you is $25 (and $10 for me) with a minimum opening amount of $250. That’s an instant 10% return on your money and you can pull your original $250 out immediately. You have to wait 30 days to pull the $25 referral money.

To receive the $25 bonus by using a link, you must be a new ING customer and you must open the account with at least $250.

    The deal is a great ROI, if you pull out after the cutoff, but I wish they would get theri interest back up a bit.

    Duncan, glad you took advantage of the offer! I’m surprised the referrals went so quickly! I’ll keep posting them until I run out I guess.
