Hello:
Last week I opened a 3 month 6% account with 75K.
Today I went back to open another account with 42K and was told although the max was 250,000K
it was a one time open account per customer.
So I would suggest having all the funds available, if possible, at the same time.
I was very disappointed and I think some sort of disclaimer should be noted.
Love your blog site and have passed it to family and friends.
Thank you
Betty

Betty, Thanks for the info and your support. Sorry to read about this one-CD-per customer limitation.
