Kickass rewards for Landmark checking users..

[Yooformula]

If you have a Landmark checking account and use your debit cards for basically anything, you get points that they tally and let you get gifts with. Well we've had our account for 3-4 years and I never bothered to pay any attention to the REWARDS letter that would come in every quarter until recently. I finally redeemed our rewards and got an RCA dual screen portable dvd player and a $50 Best Buy gift card! There are so many damm things to chose from too but if you are a Landmark cu user, check over that damm letter and look up the rewards online to see what you may qualify for!:thumbsup

Only kicker... You had to get your account changed to a rewards account. Not every Landmark CU member with a debit card gets these points, you had to actually sign up for the rewards card, even if you already had a debit card.

ahhhh, I didnt know that! I didnt even know we had signed up our account that way in the beginning. I have been rolling points over for the past several years..lol Well if they let you change it over, I would. Free shit for using the card like you normally would anyway!

have you used the points at all? I really thought it was some bs scam to get you to buy some more shit but I was wrong.:shades

[94greenbandit]

Yeah we have that but haven't redeemed it for anything else. I look once every six months at my points to see what rewards might be available

My gf works at Landmark and she said that you can switch it over at anytime. All you have to do is call member service or stop into a branch and there is a card you need to sign, they will switch your card to a rewards-it takes about 2 weeks to get the card once you change. How the rewards accumlate is; for every $2 you spend you earn 1 reward point. This is great for people who use thier check card all the time.

Landmark does other cool things such as listing people as having a forced closed account with an out standing negative balance when they don't, selling said nonexistent negative balance to collection agencies (plural,) and general douche-baggery by their "security manager."

Educator's has the same thing.... except they allowed me to choose cash in my bank account instead of their dedicated prizes. Comes out to about the same value as what you got Yoosof. I think they must use the same "program" since that prize was an option for ECU users as well. No special "rewards" account was required though that I remember.

I'll take the interest on the first $500 in the account and my Chase card for points. I'll gladly take the ~$40/month I get back from Chase over the trinkets from Landmark. Heck, I've earned nearly $200 in cash back from Chase in October and November.

Ever since Landmark jerked me around on a home mortgage and the repeated jerking around with insurance on my one car financed through them I'm looking for a new bank and definitely not in the mood to "help them out".

Chases' rewards cards fricking rules, Chase Freedom + the Amazon chase card = $$$

How many rewards points were needed for a $50 gift card and the dvd player?

see I have had the exact opposite experience with them. TCF yanked me around hard when it mattered....my wallet stolen and my entire checking account wiped out. Since moving to landmark, I moved all of our loans(4) over and when the poo hit the fan, they were able to help us refinance everything, get us a car loan AFTER the mess with the van and provide no bs insurance when it mattered. I havent had any issues with dropping coverage on my car when it goes into storage and the entire office knows us by name. Maybe its in the way to talk to them, maybe they read your posts here in regards to homes:goof or the particular location just has rude people, who knows but I am very happy with them.
