On top of that BD has an extremely long hold on check deposit and before it is cleared as available balance, you earn nothing on the check deposit. You could work around this by deposit the check into your other bank account and hope it clears in a few business days - then ACH the amount to BD. You would still lose minimum one week time but better than BD's several weeks hold if I remember correctly.
No, I'm aware of the fee, but my BD balance is high enough that for mow, I've decided to keep the account, so I'm paying the fee anyway.

I hadn't really thought about hold times. Is it really measured in weeks?
