The card came in the mail today and i activated it…the Credit Line is actually $1,750.00 but STILL…Anyway, i will call tomorrow to their credit department and see what they say…I was only going to use it as a second card to my Citi Double Cash Card but if it’s anything less than $5000, i won’t be keeping it…I’d be happier i with at least $7500 or so…

Will post after i talk to them…

Now I don’t know what’s going on. I just got an email from Popular Direct saying my account would be funded as soon as I verified the trial deposits. I have already set up an account with Investors earning 1.9%. Gawd, why is this so hard???

If you’re not going with Popular, I would recommend a Northpoint Savings account paying 2.05%.

@kohlspowrshopper said in How to save at Lowes?:

Here are two easy ways to save at Lowe’s, @gremln007:

1. Discounted gift cards from eBay (sellers PayPal Digital Gifts and SVM Gift Cards have been recently offering 10% off $100 gift cards about once a week)

2. Coupons from eBay (haven’t seen any coupons in the Moving/Welcome Packets at the USPS for a while)

I just moved and got 3 of the 10% movers coupons in 3 separate mailers they sent. They also gave me access to print one in an confirmation email they sent. YMMV

10% movers coupon

Anyone who got in under the 2% account is grandfathered in to the rate.

What do you mean grandfathered in to the rate? Those that had a 2% rate will continue at 2% and not drop to 1.85%? That would be great on Popular’s part.

Yes correct. The new 1.85% account has a different name than the old 2% account. 2% account holders keep that rate while the only option for new customers is the new 1.85% account.

@platypus said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

Popular Direct reduced its rate on savings account to 1.85%. I applied when the rate was 2%, got confirmation & trial deposits, then tried to verify the account & got a message that they wouldn’t open an account for me. I had already moved some money around in preparation to transfer the funds to PD & now it’s just sitting in checking. WTF???

Anyone who got in under the 2% account is grandfathered in to the rate.

@l_tiger Thanks - updated table.

EBSB up to 1.8%

SFGI up to 1.61%. Table updated with this and other recent updates.

@turtlebug 2%…WOW…updated the table!

Nothing after acknowledgment of order for my order without the prepaid service card. Order acknowledged and shipped for the order I placed with the prepaid service card. Plan to not activate the sim or service card and sell service card at a loss and end up with the phone for around $15.

Mutual One Online Savings up to 1.71%

@goldsheet thanks for the update on Incredible

@l_tiger thanks for the update on Live Oak

table updated

Selectel Wireless is currently offering the LG K8 V or the LG Vista for free with the purchase of 1 month of their $50 plan which runs on Verizon’s network and includes 10GB of high speed data and then unlimited slower data. I was able to place an order for the a phone without buying the $50 plan.

MOD NOTE: Terms require service plan, posters report getting phone without. However, some members of our community have questioned the security of this website and urge caution that it may be a phishing scam.

@uncamikey said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

I can verify that PurePoint offers 1.75% savings in any state that has one of their financial centers. I called last week and they updated my acct with the higher rate within a few hours. (TX)

Any indication why they do this? Don’t see anything on the website.

@craig10x said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

CIT Bank up to 1.55%
Great rates, but PurePoint (1.40%) has one great advantage over all others (that I know), which is, it credits all deposits the same day.

Does this allow for double interest for a day or two which is the benefit?

CIT Bank up to 1.55%

Alliant up to 1.30%

I would recommend Alliant Credit Union. They pay 0.65% on their Checking Account and 1.25% on their Savings Account. Only requirements for the Checking Account are receiving e-statements instead of by mailed statements and 1 electronic deposit per month. Only requirement for Savings Account is e-statements instead of mailed statements. They have a large network of ATM machines and offer $20 worth of ATM fees reimbursed per month if you need to use an ATM outside of their network. They do have a branch in Chicago at 11545 W. Touhy Avenue Chicago, IL 60666.
