Just confirmed with a Liberty CSR, they won't approve a Liberty membership or products if already a member of ETFCU, and vice versa. The CSR indicated that they consider it the same banking/lending institution (regardless of Liberty being a division of ETFCU) and therefore a duplication of products/services. This being different than say US Bank and Elan, with Elan being a division of US Bank, but considered to be two separate entities with separate products. Bottom line, a no go, bummer!

That's a shame, but thanks for bringing the info back here either way!
I got an email earlier today with the same set of documents to sign as I did towards the end of day yesterday so I signed again and let them know it might be duplicative, haven't heard back again yet.
I was looking at applying for ETFCU or Liberty Financial. Is there any reason to pick one or the other?
I'm guessing they wanted a more generic brand name for the people weirded out by how niche Evansville Teachers Federal Credit Union sounds (like me when I first looked into it), but I wanted to confirm if anybody saw any actual differences.

That's why I went with Liberty, wanted the more "open" one in case there was any changes later on. I can't see anywhere that the $5 donation went through either actually...

The Kasasa Savings is 1% and would be used for the balances above the $20k max in the Cash account. Their ACH program is the best I have seen. You can pull on a Sunday and have it reflect an available balance Monday AM... insane.
I forgot to come back and post this. An ACH from another account does indeed seem to satisfy the DD requirement. I have switched my actual DD to AOD however do to the ease and quickness of both ACH and Bill Pay.

Their acceptance of any ACH, of any amount, as DD has been great.
Also adding that anyone with a P2 can open two accounts; P1 primary w/P2 co-signer and vice versa. $40k @3.3% yes please. (Hoop jumping included though...$.50 x 30 Amazon reloads = $15/mo, but $110/mo interest)
