I logged in to my ING savings today and I noticed that the APY went up from 3.8% to 4.0%. Thought I'd share in case you all didn't notice!

This is good news but not as much increase as I was hoping for. I was really hoping they'd be more competitive after their promotion expired. Is anyone else surfing their eFund around for more competitive rates? I think what I need to do is find a good money market account that I can write checks on or get an ATM card.

Yeah, I am frustrated with this as well...Some of the other banks are up to almost 5%, and with the way ING always markets their high rates you would figure they would go up even higher. I love ING though so I am reluctant to switch now that I have it all set up with some direct debits and such. I like the way you can see how much interest has accrued on a daily basis, and how they add interest at the end of each month rather than quarterly. I hope they bump it up a little more!
