savings account with high interests
High interest savings. ING Direct savings or ETrade Complete?

Ok, I’ve been wanting to open a high interest savings account for the last month and am finally getting around to it.

I was planning on opening an ING Direct savings account with 4.10% APY, but I just came across an ETrade Financial Complete savings account with 5.05% APY.

If it was just about the numbers, obviously I would go with ETrade. ING was reccomended to me by my brother and a teacher. So I know people have had good experience with it. But it seems that the ETrade account is almost identical (No Fees. No Minimum.) So I don’t see how I couldn’t go with anything other than the ETrade.

Anyone have any feedback or experience?

Thanks!

oh and here are my options.

etrades might be going bankrupt :) i would stay away. Your money would be safe because it’s insured but would be a pain in the butt. There stock went from 30 bucks down to 2 :P If someone buys them out you would be ok but Heck i don’t think its worth it right now.

If you go with etrades anyway
