Ben, check out Everbank.
HSBC just revised their interest rate DOWN to 1.45%. It had been 1.55% for a while.
#1: Everbank "Monthly fee for balances under $5000 - $8.95" Most people might have a bit more than that in their savings, but just for everyone's information.
ATM fees for a Savings account? Charles Schwab is offering Free Investor Checking w/ no ATM fees & no currency exchange fees with a .97% APR. They also offer Savings with an agressive APR.
#1, nice find with EverBank. 3 month promotion rate of 3.01%
i got 1.99% at discover bank about a month ago... check em out.
I laugh at everyone scrambling after scraps. My hedge funds are doing quite well, earning me 30% returns in the past 3 months alone.
sign of the times... the rate keeps going down. still a good bank though in my opinion.
I've had an HSBC account for years now. Signed up back when interest rates were around 6%. Interest rate keeps going down but they're doing that everywhere. I've never had any problems with HSBC. I linked it to my local checking account which makes transferring money back and for really easy.
ING Orange Savings is 1.40 or 1.45% now. I checked my account the otherday.
Went in to Bank of America and their savings is 0.10%. HAH!!
most of the online savings banks are very similar...emigrantdirect is at 1.40% now
So where's the hot deal?
The Hot Deal is only for Ben, when people click through to HSBC
You people are rodeo cowboy if you're bickering over 0.5% in a savings account. Even if you had $100k in the account (which most people DON'T), you'd still only earn $500 extra from one bank to another over the course of the year. If you really want to make money, you should pull your head out, withdraw a decent chunk of money from your savings and start investing in stocks or funds. There are a huge number of companies that have posted better-than-expected earnings reports for FY09, meaning a lot of people are making a lot of money right now (not including anyone excited about the ~1% APY they get on their $15k in the bank. FAIL!)
Bernie Madoff gave better interest rates..
You'll get a better deal here.

It's safe and competitive. CDs will do slightly better, and index funds might be a better for long term.
HSBC is all about 'bait and switch'. You can be sure this rate will drop by about 0.1% each month for the next 6 months. No way I'm going to send my $$ to these bloodsucking leeches.
American Express Personal Savings offers 1.85%. Much better deal than the lousy HSBC scam. Close your HSBC account if you have one - they're a likely candidate for a FDIC takeover within the next year.
