INGDirect gives you 2.2% Annual Percentage Yield. If you just have money sitting in your BofA, Wells Fargo, etc. savings account, you can make more back by transferring it to ING Direct. No minimum!
 
Ya, this is great

I've been using ING Direct for several months now, it works great, and they also give you 25 dollars if you sign up under a current member. I got my free 25 dollars and I like it ;).
 
And if you have a friend who's in it, and they refer you, your friend makes $10 too.

On that note, if you want to sign up and help me out, please send me a private message with your email address and I'll split the $10 50/50 with you.
 
well

They're already getting 25 bucks, so I'm not splitting the 10 with anyone since you only get to refer 25 people max. But if you just want to make an account or get the 25 dollars, email me at [email protected] and I'll be glad to refer you. I'll even throw in a gmail invite if you actually need one haha.
 
oh yeah! anybody ever get that 50 bucks rebate from OfficeMax for the Novimex or w/e leather chair??? I never got it, grrrrrrr.
 
Haha, I thought I'd try to drive some interest by splitting the cash, but oh well.

Sign up off of a referral and get:
$25 for you
$10 to the person who referred you
2.20% interest (the highest around right now)

So, find a friend to refer you (or some money-hungry spoofee user like me or ashoro :D ). Otherwise, you get no bonus for signing up.
 
So can I refer my own wife and make another $35?
 
If you've ever had an account with them and received
the bonus forget about getting another one even if
you closed out the account. They keep
your SS# on record.

Yes, fatty, you can refer your own wife. Even though you're married, you are two different people, so that would be fine.

I've referred both my brother and my sister. It works well.
 
I've had INGDirect since Dec. 2002. It has been good to withdraw money from my checking account for my vehicle insurance fund so I can simply pay for six months at a time. I signed my wife up for it at the same time so we both made the money.

I still can't get any of my friends to sign up though. They think it is bogus...

OR you could help out a college student and sign up under me :)

Yeah, I know the feeling, who would have ever thought giving away $25 would be so hard?
 
Yes, ING Direct works

ING is originally a Dutch company. They've been buying banks all over the world. I've gotten that $10 spiff many times from friend I recommended. (When they offer it, they include a coupon in your account statement which your friend needs to use to sign up.) The high interest rate works fine. Remember, they have no office. You can switch funds back and forth from your lined checking accout via the ING Direct website. Maybe that saves them enough money that they can offer this high rate.
 
As much as I would like to do the same thing a few peeps did already and offer to send an email link so I get money and they get 25 here is a link that comes with Quicken.

Sorry to tease you, already had ING account so didn't go all the way through the link to verify what was required and I know in the past this type of link worked.

This link allows you to get 50$ when signing up. My wife and I both signed up for these accounts several years ago and I love em. Auto withdraw, high interest rate, and easy to move money back to main checking account is so nice.

You need a product number for that, and it's only one per a PN.
 
Wow 2.2%, I moved almost all my money from Bank of America. Right now, I'm looking at their CDs.. hmm.. 3.9% for letting them hold my money for 4 years.. makes me think if I'll ever need my money in the next 4 years.. hard.. hard..
 
Yeah, I keep thinking about that cd, but my sister's fiance keeps telling me to get involved in the stock market.... decisions decisions.

But, if you want to start an ING Direct CD, and you withdraw your cash early, they take 1/2 of the interest you've gained. So, you won't be losing any $$ overall, which is nice. Some banks have a hefty fee for early withdraw, ING Direct only takes 1/2 of what they gave you.
