Special CD Rates at Sovereign Bank in the Dallas-Fort Worth - Local Only
Sovereign Bank (TX) has a CD promotion with three very competitive CD rates: 2.53% APY for 37 months, 2.02% APY for 27 months and 1.51% APY for 17 months. Minimum deposit is $25,000. These specials aren't listed at the bank's website. A reader emailed me news of this, and I called a couple of branches yesterday (4/26/2011). According to the bank rep, these specials are scheduled to last until June 1, 2011. These should be available at all of their Dallas-Forth Worth branches. However, they are not available at their Austin branches.
A branch visit is required to open an account. Sovereign Bank's DFW branches are located in Dallas, Forth Worth, Arlington, Irving, Richardson and Southlake.
It should be noted that this Texas Sovereign Bank has no relation to the large Sovereign Bank that's based on Boston.

4-27-2011 Talked to someone at the Preston Branch in Dallas and they had not heard of these rates. Which branches did you talk to? Thanks.

I called the North Dallas branch @ 214-242-1900. I'm not sure who they forwarded me to.

Went by the Richardson location. The other half of the building was a 7 11 store. Not a good feeling about a bank.
