CIT is a division of First Citizens Bank and Trust Co.
Didn't First Citizens just acquire the assets of SVB?
4.80% is good for a no-penalty CD.
For a normal CD, Marcus is offering a 10-month 5.05%.
CIT also has a savings account for 4.75% if you put in more than $5k. Keep in mind that CIT is notorious for creating new savings products with higher rates and reducing the rates of old ones without telling you.
Ally needs to match this. They just lowered theirs to 4.35% from 4.75%.

Same. Mine was reduced down to 0.5% from 4% after about a year. They were offering new accounts around 3.5% at the time. They also didn't give you a way to transfer the money out without paying a $20 fee.
Agreed on the reducing down interest regularly and w/o notice. But I regularly ACH transfer out of my CIT account without any fees.

Agree that they will offer new products with higher rates and either reduce the rate or keep the rate low on existing products. however, I have NEVER had any trouble moving my money out of CIT or moving it within CIT to the newer higher rate product. For example, I just moved my funds from their Savings Connect to this CD to take advantage of the small 0.3% difference in APY. You just have to be nimble with them in a changing interest rate environment.

If you catch it! It's true…they will sneak it and not tell you. Check the yield frequently if you have a large amount invested…happened to me twice!

Their site shows that an ACH is free now. There used to be a fee for any outgoing funds.
