Yes, the Schwab-One account requires a $500 minimum for their VISA
debit card, but you get money-market interest on that. What's the
problem? (You are also protected the same way that an earlier posting
about Merrill Lynch pointed out -- "Bank One" of Columbus, OH, reserves
the "right to extend you additional credit". So it's a "credit" card,
from the consumer protection point of view.)
