Words can not express my profound disappointment with them right now.

However, I'm getting out of that fairly soon anyways, so there's no sense for me to switch ships right now.

Just an FYI, when I click on the link for the OneUnited Unity Gold E-Savings account it says you have to have a $1,000 minimum.

Didn't Poundwise say "$1K to open | $1K to earn stated interest" ?

Savings rates updated today: Thursday, October 11th

Amboy Direct Premium from 5.05% to 4.80%


And WOW ...

IndyMac Bank from 4.75% to 1.50%

They still have the nice 4 month CD offer but I guess they decided to get out of the online savings business. They are off the list.

Wow, the hits just keep on coming.

These banks still blow away the brick-and-mortar banks though. Just think how many people out there are still earning 0.25% (or less) on their money.

Citibank also dropped the rate on their "Ultimate Savings" account from 4.75 APY to 4.5.

I'll stick with them cos I like the free next-day transfers to/from my other bank accounts..
