Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, it's a huge bank in Spain and lots of Latin America. However apparently the USA division is 100% independent and runs their own accounts. As pointed out above PNC purchased this USA division and will fold it in (BBVA will still exist globally)

Beware BBVA!!! I had an account with them and it was nothing but trouble. They have horrible customer service. If you open an account with them....watch them like a hawk.

does it say in the fine print or did you check it yourself?

edit: ah I see it


Quote :
A qualifying direct deposit is a recurring paycheck, pension or benefit (such as Social Security) from your employer or the government. The following deposits are not qualifying direct deposits: interest payments or transfers from your investment accounts; payments received from payment apps such as PayPal, Venmo and other similar payment service providers; tax refunds or one-time economic stimulus payments such as financial assistance made available under the CARES Act or any other financial assistance made available in express response to the COVID-19 pandemic. You must be a new BBVA consumer checking customer who has not had a BBVA consumer checking account open within the last 36 months or closed due to negative balance to be eligible for the bonus.

When I scanned the terms, it looks to be employment and government only.

I am sure everyone knows this but the bonus is considered taxable income and gets reported to irs.

Explain
etfs are pretty liquid and assuming you believe the us stock market will grow in the next 5 years, then an index linked etf like spy should be relatively safe

I wonder if an ACH transfer from ally bank would be counted as a qualifying direct deposit for this bank. Does anyone know?

Direct deposit requires a third party, usually payroll. There are special designation too.
