Just saw this offer at my nearby branch:

$100 bonus for opening a Checking account ($100 deposit) + Money Market or Savings account ($100 deposit), plus Enrolling in free on-line banking, getting a CheckCard and using it to make two qualifying purchases (yet to find out the definition for "Qualifying"). $100 cash bonus will be received after 75 days from the date of opening your accounts.

Direct deposit (even partial) will avoid $5 monthly account maintenance fee.

FYI, Sovereign allows initial deposits by CC, up to 1k. At least it was that way when i opened an account there for the last promotion.

Very difficult to avoid monthly fees with any combo of two accounts. I'll pass.

If you get the Sovereign Bank accounts, and you have at least $15,500 you could open up a Sovereign Premier Checking account, Premier Money Market account, and have the bulk of your money in the Save and Invest CD Program... where if you invest $15,000... half goes to the Save CD, a short-term 6-month CD currently at 2.23%APR/2.25%APY, minimum is $2,500; the other half goes to a InvestCD, a 36-month CD where principal is guaranteed, minimum $2,500 deposit, and maturity date is November 30, 2012; details not included...but it is somehow tied to the S&P 500 Index as of November 30, 2009. After 6-months, you'll have to keep the money at Sovereign since you will have the Premier Checking account that requires $15,000 minimum balance requirements in all deposit accounts to avoid steep monthly maintenance fees.
