Re: savings account similar to DCU???????

Fudge. APY got slashed.

 

With an unprecedented 2.52% APY for balances up to $2500 and 0.10% APY on balances over $2500, a Brighter Day Savings account is the premier way to earn maximum returns on your savings.

Re: savings account similar to DCU???????

It's interesting that DCU is still 6.17% on $1K and Credit Union of New Jersey is still 7.5% on $500. Both of them must use the savings as a way to offer their members products that are profitable. We know DCU does quarterly prequals, I wonder if CUNJ does too?

Are you aware of any other credit union that offers 4% or more savings rate besides blue CU which I won't consider.

Thats rewards checking not savings. They require you to work for your rate instead of set it and forget it like DCU.

Use the drop down @Green456  and choose the savings. Here let me do it for you https://www.depositaccounts.com/savings/

 

Or go to the money market drop down. Max has one with a good rate if this rate is current. They SP for bank accounts and use EX 8 auto score. Maybe time for me to reopen an account with them.

Couldn't help myself, went ahead and opened an account back up with them. And became a member in 10 mins. Their system is super fast. 

Even funded the account with $3000 using a 2% cash back MasterCard. You can fund accounts with up to $3000 using CC's for Max FCU. I'd suggest using a Mastercard as VISA loves cash advance fees.

Wow that's an amazing rate on their reverse MM account. I just went and looked.

It looks like no go for me with that geofence though which explains how they're able to offer such a sick rate.

Most of them have slashed their rates quite a bit unfortunately. I'm looking for a place to park my stimulus check when I get it and its a challenge to find high rates that don't have a fence I can't get around.
