ING Direct Not Keeping Pace

Sorry for not writing much lately, I’ve been a little under the weather.

The savings interest rate at ING Direct has not moved up since December 28. Since then, others like Emigrant Direct (at 3% APY) and VirtualBank at 2.6% APY (for the first $10,000).

I’m sure ING Direct has noticed the competition and will likely move their rates up at the end of this month or the beginning of next. Contact me if you want an ING Direct referral email, which provides you with $25 towards your new account there and me with $10 for referring a new customer.
