Overall Score

They call it a Money Market account. They seem to always be in the top 5 as far as rates go. The support is fantastic, if you like the phone. The only thing holding them back is that you can't write checks or use an ATM to use your money.

The rates and customer support is fantastic. I would like to see a more rigid login process for an added layer of security, but the are meeting the status quo. If they offered free ATM access and check writing, they would easily be a 5 out of 5 overall.

Rate History:

Well above average. I find that they are always in the top 10. Always!

Customer Service:

24/7 phone support. It literally took 10 seconds to get someone on the phone at about noon EST. I spoke to an English speaker. They were well versed in the bank procedures.

Security

Pretty standard, not an industry leader.
