$20 per month with Santander Bank

Big question is what'll qualify as DD.

So not great, but not terrible, especially if the DD is simple, and they continue it for a few years.

But weird verification questions.
In which of the following age ranges do one or more of your children fall?
In which of the following years was your house built at your current address?

You need a checking and savings account with them to get this promotion.  Savings minimum balance is 100.
What do you do after your dreams come true?

That's what I've seen.
Works for fee-waiver but not signup bonus.

Meh, lot of work to hope they don't change their terms. Would be one thing if it was a 1 time sign-up bonus of $200, etc...

Does anyone have any information (spoke with a banker...) about how long they intend this promotion to last for?

Quote
And no monthly fee on your extra20® checking account when you meet the above direct deposit requirements (otherwise $10).
In case I ever find its no longer convenient to do $1500 dd each month I want to be reassured that I have a way out.

Just initiate a transfer in from another bank. Pretty sure that works
