Thoughts On Online Savings Accounts
Friday, August 22nd, 2008I’m firing Citibank. They just aren’t a great deal anymore for my money. I’m looking at Washington Mutual instead, and some of the other online savings accounts as well. Much better deals to be had. Sometimes you have to remind yourself that you are lending your money to the bank with these accounts, and they ought to be paying you. It’s not like you get to charge the bank fees when they loan you money, after all. Specifically, Capital One Bank Online is a great deal. They pay good rates, and don’t charge all of those hidden fees that the big boys are always hitting you with. Who cares if the big banks have more ATMs when they will refund your ATM fees from any other Bank? Now I can use any ATM in town. You might want to look into the benefits of online banking yourself. More on this soon.
