Astoria bonus
They have been around for 80 years. Their HQ are located in lake Success NY (Nassau County) and have about 25 branches On Long island/Queens/ Brooklyn/Westchester and a new branch near Madison sq. garden in Manhattan. This is the reason for the bonus. Very big in home mortgages in the NY area. They have tremendous amt of deposit= lots of assets.

How lazy are you? Go read the T&C. The website is a click away.

I have the same question. So if I am only opening the Simple + checking account, do I need to maintain $2,500 , $10,000 , or $25,000?

Only being a checking acct is irrelevant, as some banks still do a HP even for checking accts
