Thumbs up 4% at Emigrant Direct

As previously posted on another thread, I checked my Emigrant Direct account last night, only to find that they are now paying 4%.
Somehow I knew they would beat everyone else to 4%

Woohoo!

I might have to move my money from ING. .7% is starting to matter to me!

Default Re: 4% at Emigrant Direct

After sticking with ING for a while (0.2% difference? meh...) I finally started an account at ING. It's taking a while to activate, so I still have money at ING (which raised its rates to 3.4 today), but I'll be moving it soon. At 0.2%, I don't care much. At 0.6%.... It's worth the 15 minutes it took to sign up.

I'm moving money to my Emmigrant account too. .6% is too much to pay just because I like the system better.
