But CFG Bank has limits according to their website:

I'm getting tired of moving my money around chasing the APY. They should be coming up again after tomorrow's FED meeting too.

Nope, usually paid out within a few business days.

FDIC official website has a section for concernicus folks like you specifically:

Haha. They actually did this right now before the meeting to beat other banks to it. The rate is based on the almost 1 bp they are raising.

Just had a lengthy conversation with them and they do seem legit. Asked many questions as well. They have branches as well.

Would expect to see 3% or higher CD's but they offer less than 2.0% rates on 18-24months so would love to see prior rates at this bank for checking/savings..

https://digital.primisbank.com/br...rsonal/CDA

Would bet they will lower the 5% soon.

"This isn't just talk – we are developing programs and supporting organizations – like the Forward Foundation and Human Kind – that provide more than a hand out or even a hand up. Instead, Primis is offering a foundation on which women and girls can build their future."

I saw a similar episode of Seinfeld.... the Human Fund.

But it does mean if they collapse you will get your money back from Uncle Sam (up to the limit ofc).

Redneck Bank is pretty good if you stay below 75K. They are always near the top.

They are FDIC insured. That's a great deal. FYI this is a great site to find lots of them:
