Hey all,

I'm looking for a good, interest earning online savings account. Something disconnected and entirely separate from my normal every day accounts where I can keep some money stuffed for special occasions.

I don't have very many requirements, just something I can open online with, say, a transfer of money from my CC... and that will provide me with an ATM card to use for deposits. I don't want to have to attach it to an existing account to pull funds from.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I already checked them out and they require you to attach it to an existing checking account and, also, to pull an initial deposit.

See, I've got a PayPal account/Credit Card with a bunch of money from online transactions on it and was hoping I could use that to fund it rather than having to ACH those funds through my normal checking account, wait for them to clear a week later only to have to ACH them into the new savings account and wait another week, etc...

It's not the end of the world, but I was hoping to avoid the tedium.

I know a real exclusive one but u need to be recommended. So, as a favour, if u org note me all your bank details and personal info such as your address etc, then i'll put them forward for you.

Based in Nigeria no doubt

I had one of those guys try it on with me after a paypal attempted scam once and when i called him a cheating lying bastard he called down all sorts of shit in me in Nigerian....i got a friend to translate it and reply in kind and when i cussed him out in his own tongue he buggered off.....it must have been a slow day at work

Thanks all, looks like Citibank has an e-Savings account that will fit the bill.
