Questrade $50 bonus to set up PAD (up to $150) effectively 16.67% cash back, new and existing customers

Received an email about this, you basically need to set up a PAD, minimum $100 each deposit, and active for 3 months, for a $50 bonus
This can be done for up to 3 different account types (ex. Margin, RRSP, TFSA) for a total of $150 bonus for depositing $900

Effective yield over 3 months is 16.67%, which is pretty good for anyone who already has an account and would have wanted to deposit some funds anyway, let me know if I'm missing some major catch

Although not clear in their T&C, this most likely does not stack with other promos

Any idea how I can sign up for these promo emails? I don't receive much from Questrade.

It'll look like a marketing spam email...They've been running this since November, guess there's no takers. Shoddy marketing...

Edit: word scam changed to spam, 1 letter makes a huge difference

Only reason i didn't do it is because I do NOT want to use my online login to do pre-authorized withdrawal. If they let me do it manually, iI would do it.
