But CFG Bank has limits according to their website:
Once funding occurs the daily external transfer limit for the CFG High Yield Money Market Account is $5,000. Your external transfers may not exceed $30,000 in a 30-day rolling period.

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:

3.75 or 3.85? Cuz my savings is only 3.75.
Thought I was only one who figured out the overdraft protection trick with Sofi.

Everyone on here chases the high % and complains about the dumbest things for maybe an extra $100/yr…
Lol figured out overdraft protection myself recently with sofi so stupid of them to differ the percentage b/w both accounts tho

It's 3.75% on savings with sofi and ACH isn't always next day sometimes 2-3 days depending on amount I've used it
Correct. 3.75%. Do you start your transfer from Sofi or external bank? I do from Sofi.

Thinking of opening their checking account. Do they also require such as 10 debit card transactions every month to keep the high interest rate? Any other restrictions?

I found it accidentally by mistyping my banks name. Type jumbled letters and you'll see the option automatically.

Quote from cattlet1 :
People should read the details. MySavingsDirect requires 60 day advance written notice of any intended withdrawal before you can get your funds. These guys look like a regular bank, and probably won't have such crazy restrictions.
from PRIMIS fine print:
III.3. Restrictions; Limits. In most cases you may use Online Banking to gain access to deposit accounts in which you have an unrestricted right to withdraw funds. However, the Financial Institution, as it may determine at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion, may deny Online Banking account access, restrict Online Banking account transactions, or place limits on the specific dollar amount of funds that may be withdrawn or transferred from any account.

Nope...ALL banks, literally all of them, have this in their policy. No one enforces it.
Not true but Emigrant g its spinoffs have it when you point it out to a rep, they say it's never been enforced.
