5.50% 30-Month CD at Florida Bank

Apr 28, 2006 - 8:42 AM by Ken Tumin

Peoples First Community Bank is advertising a 5.50% APY 30-month certificate of deposit. The CD has a minimum deposit of $2.5K and requires a Peoples First checking account. Many of the checking accounts at this bank have no minimum balance requirements to avoid fees. The other advertised CD special is a 4.75% 9-month CD. These certificate specials are not listed at the bank's website, but were advertised in the Orlando Sentinel and the Daytona Beach News (see online ad).

This bank has been coming out with some competitive CD specials over the last several months. My last report on this bank was in early February in which the bank was advertising a 5.25% 2-year CD.

The bank has branches throughout Central and North Florida including the cities of Jacksonville, Panama City, Tallahassee, Pensacola, Altamonte Springs, Apoka and Kissimmee.

The Best 2.5 Year CD

The highest 30-month CD currently listed at Bankrate.com is 5.35% APY at American United Bank of Georgia. For an extra 6 months in the term, you can now get 6% APY at Pentagon FCU (see post).
