Umm...this is an old thread.

There's like 1 or 2 new threads about it.

HSBC is also at 4% APY. I got in on the 35.00 extra for signing up last month.

I don't see a $35 signing up bonus at HSBC site.
Is that with a referral only .. or they cut a special
deal just for you?

No, it wasn't a referral, it was on their website for new sign-ups only. It ended at the end of October.

Paypal is paying 4.15% on it's money market account now. Been going up pretty steadily the past few months.

CapitalOne online savings account is now at 4.00%. I haven't seen this, but thought I would pass it on.

ING has a nice 6 month'er though.

I don't doubt ING has I have both EmigrantDirect and ING accounts (One ING account for each of my kids too to encourage savings). I was simply showing other options as they seem to be becoming available.

Heck, the US I-Bonds at 6.73% seem like a pretty good investment right now too!

Is that FDIC insured? Also, have heard bad things about PayPal locking your account.

Up .05% is so lame =(

Btw, if you need a referral, PM me.

Anyone have experience with the HSBC Online Savings account? 4.25% is still significantly higher than ING's 3.8% and HSBC gives you an ATM card so you can withdraw money for free from their ATMS.

I have a HSBC account and I'm in the process of transferring the bulk of my saving from ING to HSBC simply because of the rate differential.

However, in terms of speed and web presentation I still prefer ING over Emigrantdirect or HSBC (yes, I have all 3 acct).

Take account opening for example, I was up and running in 2-3 days with ING. With both Emigrant and HSBC, it took about a month to get account ready (both places requires mailing of password and acct # separately thru snail mail and re-opening an account after the initial online application).

And after jumping thru all the hoops in opening HSBC, you have to do it again in order to link checking acct and begin transfering money (wait for another set of deopsit verification).

But 4.25-3.8 = .45%, so in the end money wins!
