I think it's because they pay you if you get someone else to sign up. I left a long time ago and moved to ED but kept $2 in my ING account just to keep it open. I went back when they offered the 4.75%.

sweepsplayer - it's an emotional attachment - I got to ING and it was easy. trying to open a ED account or HSBC is proving to be a bit hard for me, as soon as i can - Iwill be knocking on their doors! For now, ING is there now and I'll lay low with them
