Still haven't gotten the $150 Slickdeals rebate from the AMEX card deal from a month back...
Vanguard money market is about 2.49% or so currently. Places like Cit bank is around 2.45%. Other places have 2.3-2.4%ish accounts. Purepoint has a no-penalty CD at 2.6%
But with 20K to play with, you may be better off doing the bank bonus game -- Discover/Capital One/HSBC checking/Citi and so on.
I checked our system and your approval is showing up on 3/8. You should receive payment by early next week.

What I would like to know, are there any fees associated with the savings account? Do they try anything funny?
Have you tried reading the T&C for the account? There are no account maintenance fees but there is a fee for $25 if you close the account within 180 days.
First off: Thanks SD for the $125 bonus. I received it.
Now onto HSBC: I have an Advance Checking account opened in 2018 and it came with $400 bonus, with a minimum avg daily balance of 10,000. They suggested I move the entire amount to a CD so I get interest. The total of Checking+linked CD should be over 10K, All worked fine for an year until expiry of CD. After the CD expired, I asked them to move the CD amount with interest to Checking.
I am not sure the date I initiated transfer, but it looks like the incoming transfer to Checking was a day after my request. For obvious reasons, I am not able to see the CD anymore as it was closed.
After all this happened, I had a $25 charge for not maintaining minimum balance. All I did was move money between HSBC linked accounts. (FYI, I had a total balance of 11,400)
After, 45 minutes of chat explaining that even with a one day gap of not maintaining 10,000 would result in an avg balance of over $10K, they gave me a "One-time" "COURTESY" reversal of FEE.
So, be very careful with charges.
I know most ppl have only savings account here. But, I wanted to offer my experience.
