ick.....I'm glad I decided on American Express in favor of ING.  can you move your account? I got a lot of good feedback on the AmEx savings accounts when I asked about a month ago. search for AmEx high-yield savings. |

I closed my ING account a few months ago, but I have to wonder if Cap One is going to raise the deposit/balance level once they take over ING. Last time I looked at Cap One's savings, it had something like a $10k minimum. |

so I guess I'll have to find another home for my savings account, but my CD has 18 months left to go.

I still have my ING account, only b/c that's where I had signed up to put my direct deposit from my FSA accounts and withdrawls to ROTH. I also have an account from Discoverbank, which pays more interest right now (1.2% I believe).

I have my high yield with Sallie Mae. I chose them not only because of the "good" rate offered (maybe 1.1%), but because I know I don't have to worry about them being bought out.

Shit. What does the rest of the article say? I'm not a WSJ subscriber.

I hate to break the news to you, but Sallie Mae is a publicly traded coporaion (SLM). They were one a government sponsored entity (like Fannie Mae). They were privatized several years ago. They are as likely to be bought out as anyone. |

For all of the horrible reviews Cap One gets - maybe I'm the only satisfied customer they have. I've had 2 credit cards with them for over 10 years. I've had cards to report cards stolen and had to dispute merchant charges. They've always been prompt courteous, and have never done anything totally off the wall with my terms (unlike Chase and Citibank). The rewards are still good, even if they aren't the absolute best out there.

I've been with ING for 10 years. What I like is that the account is linked to my primary checking, secondary checking (different bank) and my Ameritrade account. Also, ING doesn't have a dollar amount that I can transfer in an out in one transaction.
This is a real bummer!!!!!
