I'll have to wait and see. The 25K is not in play here, as the account was opened, and I have the Continental-branded debit card, and if I leave the account open for the (was it 4 or 6 months?) time required to meet the bonus mileage T&C.
I think it'll be worth possibly paying one monthly maintenance fee to see if the transfer counts as a DD.
