That's pretty cool. I would like to highlight one thing from the terms:
Direct deposit can be from an employer or governmental source and must be directed into your eChecking account at Meadows. PayPal, CashEdge and other non-employment direct transfers do not qualify.
Even then, it's not a bad promo... I wonder how flexible my company's payroll department is?
Do you know if we will get first order of check for free?I can't find it anywhere on their website. Thanks.

I think $2500 min is to earn interest, otherwise there is no minimum requiurement to avoid fee - you just need DD.

I have this account for about 2 years now and there is no minimum balance requirement, but of course things could've changed so call to make sure.
