Alliant's Checking and Savings Rate

[Anonymous]

Alliant Credit Union has lowered their rates again  Checking New Rate: 0.698, Savings New Rate: 0.648. Online savings accounts from banks like Barclays (1.00%) and Discover (0.80%) are really starting to look more attractive now, even Amex's savings account pays 0.90%. Well just thought I'd let the form know 

Back to the garden I go

Happy Crediting

I like how their rate for a checking account is higher than their savings account rate.

It's not, the savings rate is actually higher than the checking.
