That isn't necessarily true. I am a limited member with USAA and I have the secured card. However, I was able to get on board almost nine monthes ago.

Citi secured CD's now only pay 1% APR. Looks like you just got in under the wire.

I have reestablished credit over the last couple years
so my moniker is, well, rather out of date.

WM Discover $1800, WF Plat 12k, Chase Freedom Siggy18k, Amex Plat (60k H/B), Citi AA EWMC 25k

Woah! That sucks. I knew they couldn't sustain 4.07%, especially in this economy. But 1% on an 18 month CD is about as low as it gets... Still, it's nice that your deposit earns anything at all, most secured cards don't do that.

Fun ride while it lasted...
