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???

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???
