About time. What's this about ING holding funds for 10 days and not paying interest during that time?

I hope that ING keeps the refer a friend program, they keep raising rates which is great, but can they afford to have both? I made more money telling my friends about ING than I did off of interest, of course I have more friends than money ING already got rid of the Home Equity program.

Anyone knows when the Fed are meeting again? If they think that inflation is nothing, they're gonna increase interest rate again... Miss the good old days... Put money on AMEX Money Market account for 5.65% and got $1,000 interest for that one year.

Does this mean Emigrant will bump their rate to 3.45%?

For your first deposit, the funds are held for 10 business days. Interest starts on the 2nd business day.
For every deposit the first, funds are held for 5 business days, and interest accures starting on the 2nd business day.

If I am not mistaken, it will be may 3rd.
Good to hear theat ING raised to 3.0. I just completed my Emigrant Account last night.

Incorrect. One of the reasons the Feds increase the interest rate is to lower the rate of inflation. Higher interest rates lowers the liquid supply of money which lowers the rate of inflation.

If you want to get technical then your explanation is incorrect. The Fed performs an open market sale of bonds which lowers the supply of money. The Fed controls the supply of money and not the interest rate. The reduced supply of money is the cause of higher interest rates, and not the other way around.

Thanks, OP! Guys, I want to open The Orange Savings and want to confirm with anybody who already got it - there is really no fees whatsoever? That's what it says on their site, but I want to make sure. Thanks for info, feel free to PM me, no need to threadcrap.

No fees, no minimums...but you might be better off if you go with Emigrant Direct. Same kind of account, only higher APY (3.25% currently).

So, the trade-off is between additional 0.25% at Emigrant vs. $25 bonus at ING. currently, you would need to invest $10,000 for 1 year at Emigrant to make the extra $25 that ING gives you for free when you open your account.
Or you could get a referral to VirtualBank and ING ($20 and $25) and then open up an Emigrant account.
Yes I have all 3- Ive been moving my $$ around to the highest account, as Im sure many, many FW's have been doing.

Higher interest rate (R) ---> people deposit more and hold less cash ----> less money supply . Apparently interest rate do affect money supply and inflation rate.

I just opened ING with a $50 sign up bonus, there is a thread about it - Taxcut Deluxe. Figured with that bump from the start, CapitalOne and Emigrant would have to a significantly higher rate to beat ING for the year in terms of interest. Would need to be over .25% higher on 20k to do that. If the gap increases, I may look at opening with one of them, but with referral bonuses, etc., ING seems likely to hang with any of them.
i closed my ING account two months ago. Can I sign up a new account to get $50 taxcut bonus?

I would think so...it only requires that you have a different primary account holder...therefore, I would think that couples could also open two accounts with each being a primary on an account. Anyone tried this?

I successfully pulled from ING Savings account to GMAC Savings account.
I bite my tongue . I was either mistaken about this or policies have long since changed. I've had ING for a long while now, and a lot has changed over the years, including the APY .
Thank you very much for answering my question, providing me with proof that you can link GMAC to other savings accounts. I just wanted to know that someone successfully did this before I signed up with them.
ShakuniMama said: Portalogem said: So I'm just wondering if anyone had tried to push money to an MMA using ING's ACH system and if it worked? I think (as someone mentioned earlier) if you designate GMAC MMA account as a "Checking Account" at ING website it should work.
I'll try that approach with ING to see if that works first. If not I'll just open up the GMAC savings account and use them to fund the RedNeck MMA (as well as having GMAC replace that Amboy account I just closed due to that new "$5 monthly fee if balance <$100" policy Amboy will soon impose by 5/1). Thanks everyone for helping me with this.
