Competitive 15-Month CD Special at Workers' Credit Union in MA & NH - Local Only

Workers Credit Union is offering a special 15-month CD and IRA CD with a 1.60% APY. There are also two other CD specials, but they're less competitive. Those include a 1.10% APY 8-month CD and a 1.75% APY 25-month CD. Minimum deposit is $500 ($1,000 for the IRA). An active checking account with direct deposit is required. These specials are listed in the credit union's deposit rates page as of 11/22/2010.

As a comparison to internet banks on 11/22/2010, the best 1-year CD rate is 1.50% APY at CNB Bank Direct.

The checking account requirement is a drawback, but at least they offer a reward checking account. It currently pays 2.75% APY on balances up to $25K (see post).

Another good deal being offered by Workers Credit Union is an online savings account with a 1.20% APY as of 11/22/2010. The rate has held up fairly well. Last year at this time the yield was 1.40%. Minimum opening deposit is $500, and there are no fees or minimum balance requirements.
