Has anyone had any experience with them? Are they worth the hassle/effort of using the debit card all the times they require? I found one close to me, www.nbrsreward.com plus I can manage the account completely online & if you meet the monthly debits you get 5.26% |
I've used Southern Community Bank (
Southern Community Bank and Trust: Personal and Business Financial Services - Home) for about 5 months. It was 6% when I opened it and shortly dropped to 4%. I am still using it out of inertia. I use the debit card for very small transactions only (less than $10) and replenish anything I take out once every couple of weeks. It is really not much of a hassle once you get used to it.
