I used one of your links to open an account last night.

The first link I tried had been used. Instead of blue writing I got a paragraph in the same black print as the rest of the page, but it was the first paragraph on the page and it did say clearly that the link had "expired or been used".

The second link I tried didn't specifically confirm on the first page that the link was ok, it just told me how to sign up. The confirmation that I would get a $25 bonus came on the page where you're asked for your checking account information. It has a picture of a check showing where the routing number and account number will be, and next to the bottom right corner of that picture is red print that says "If your initial deposit is at least $250 you will get $25".

BTW: Thanks for the links.

Edited to add:
For anyone who's wondering, sign-up took about 30 minutes because I read some of the agreements online instead of just downloading them. I'd estimate 15 minutes to sign up via a dial-up connection if you download the agreements and only read what you have to online. Took an additional 10 minutes via dial-up to do the verification process and enroll in the new login proceedure. Overall I'm satisfied wth both these processes. Subsequent logins have been fast and easy. I also like the extra security provided by their login proceedure -- things like them displaying a picture and phrase you've previously chosen to prove you're really on their website and not a bogus look-alike.
