KeyBank is offering a $100 pre-loaded Mastercard for opening up a Free Checking account with them and making two direct deposits and/or automated payments. You must reside in a state that has KeyBank locations. There is a lot of fine print, but the free iPod Nano I’m listening to right now is from a previous offer. This is only a partial excerpt:

  1. Is this deal possible without Direct Deposit? It seems to rule out all my ideas for automated payments. Is their another way to make an automated payment, that would qualify?

  2. I just tried the KeyBank offer, but it doesn’t like my CA zipcode. Any thoughts on ways around that?

  3. Josh – You could pay your cable or cell phone bill using your KeyBank account, pulling from the cable providers website. Many such companies allow you to both overpay (draw out $100 even if the bill is $50) and make multiple payments per month.

    Susan – I think they may require you to be in a state where KeyBank has a physical location.

  4. If you are going to try to get your ink refilled at Walgreen’s be prepared to get there in the morning. I tried a previous Walgreen’s free ink refill and got there in the afternoon. By that time the wait to get your cartridge back was six days. Going without color may work for that long but black is not a color I can do without.

  5. Can you just bring an old one in? Or do they get all dried out once taken out of printer?

  6. I tried HP and their computer rejected it. They offered me 10 free prints because it failed. Don’t know if cartridge age is a factor. I’ve been recycling my old cartridges there from old printers for the 10 free digital prints. (a $3 value) So far I’ve gotten 70 free prints. Any better deals out there to recycle ink cartridges?

  7. … “Automated payments exclude Key Bill Pay, debit card automated payments, PayPal® transactions and account to account balance transfers.” …

    Here, I don’t understand what are the automated payments KeyBank are referring to. Usually, I set up a regular online bill payment (semi-monthly) on KeyBank’s website. Which seems not qualified.

    Instead, I should set up a regular monthly payment from ConEd and/or TimeWarner Cable websites to bill KeyBank twice a month. So, this set-up qualifies! Am I right? Could someone shed light on this?

    Anyway, I plan to open an accoount in person to the Keybank’s branch. I will ask this question on-site, and maybe set it up when they open my account.

  8. Try a continuous ink system…I just bought one and I love it…I no longer have to worry about being out of ink…it is supposed to equal 61 cartridges of each color and yet costs the same as 1 set.

  9. I also got a continuous ink system…I got one a month ago and I love it…no mess and easy to install….I got mine here Printer Ink Refills and Continuous Ink System They have all types of printers available. I am no longer stingy with my ink and I let my kids print as much as they want to.
