Online Banks
I’ve been looking into internet savings accounts lately. I’ve had enough of big local banks. Lousy rates and high fees - why stick with them? It’s time for a change, so I’m going to try something new. I mean after all, it’s my money, and I’m lending it to them. They should pay for the privilege. And why should I have to pay fees to them? It’s not like I get to charge them fees when I borrow money from them. I poked around the net, and settled on ING Electric Orange Checking Accounts as the best option out there. They pay great rates, and don’t charge those ridiculous fees. Who cares if the big banks have more ATMs when they will refund your ATM fees from any other Bank? Now I can use any ATM in town. If you’re not earning a good return, you might want to check them out as well.
