A: In the unlikely event of a bank failure, the FDIC responds in two capacities.
First, as the insurer of the bank's deposits, the FDIC pays insurance to depositors up to the insurance limit. Historically, the FDIC pays insurance within a few days after a bank closing, usually the next business day, by either 1) providing each depositor with a new account at another insured bank in an amount equal to the insured balance of their account at the failed bank, or 2) issuing a check to each depositor for the insured balance of their account at the failed bank.

This is a really good rate for a non-CD account. But this bank has been under pressure the last few months. Read the recent news and don't put all of your savings into a single bank.

I figure $200K is safe. Well under FDIC limit. Anything else I am missing? The FDIC website says it will cut out a check for the deposit and interest with 2 to 3 day if there is a failure or transfer the account to a new bank. Is there something I am missing? Just want to cross all the dots. I already sent them $25K. They actually have a branch of NY Community Bank near me.

I've been using this bank but kind of hesitant to place big amounts there.
First, on a 3-way call with old bank for a big initial transfer, MBD couldn't find my account for 5-minutes, so we had to cancel.
Second, the transfer seems slow. Other online banks would do same-day/next day transfer and interest accrual. It seems like MBD take 2+ full days, perhaps losing 2 days of interest.
I know I'm nitpicking on losing 2-days of interest, but at a high amount transfers, it could mean I get to supersize my Big Mac meal or not using interest money.
Super extra note, no "early" paycheck ACH like Wealthfront / Sofi (another possible day or two of interest lost)

Have you had any problem with withdrawal? I am thinking maybe I should link up from my external account so I can request withdrawal from there instead of from MBD. I figured if there is a problem with this bank, the first thing will be problem of trying to withdraw from their website.

No problem with withdrawal. I think the monthly limits are $500k.
I had to zero my account out there for something, and I didn't see a big issue. It wasn't a big amount though. I recently transferred some $$ due to the new interest rate and will add some reviews after it's done. I need to confirm that interest accrues during holding period (5 days).
Their app somewhat sucks, you can't even see your rates there. Be sure to use their website for most things
Rates have been dropping pretty much everywhere... Did this bank just increase the rate to 5.55% APY?
They need the cash. My guess is a lot of savers desperate for rates are pouring in at below the FDIC insured amount. They said 72% of their deposits are at insured level. I am still shocked 28% are not. Maybe retired people taking risks chasing higher yield.

Here is a start. Read at least the bullet points and make sure you are comfortable with it:
