I would like to compile a master listing of which banks count ING Direct, Paypal, Emigrant Direct, or CashEdge/ACH push transfers as direct deposits. I realize that we have mentions of some of this information in various threads on specific bank account bonuses, but I thought it would be helpful to have a single source for ready reference.
I will begin the master list on the next post with the little bit of information I know from personal experience, and will update periodically based on the information posted in the replies to this thread. When posting, please post which methods you have successfully used to fulfill your bank's direct deposit requirements. Thanks!
Note: I am updating the list based on exactly what is reported. I am trying to assume nothing. Therefore, if someone only mentions ING works, it will only be listed on the ING list. It can probably be assumed that CashEdge would work in this case as well, but I will not add to the list until someone verifies it.
New list format: I have made a single list for banks that count any psuedo-direct deposit methods, with the methods confirmed in parenthesis. Also, since the term Cashedge is foreign to many and not completely applicable in some situations, I will simply refer to these types of transactions as ACH pushes.
