Best Savings and Money Market Accounts Available Nationwide

There continues to be 5 banks that offer savings accounts available nationwide with rates of around 2.00% as of 4/28/10. However, all but one have a limit on the amount that can qualify for the 2%. SmartyPig will soon have a cap of $50K. The three Oklahoma internet banks (Redneck Bank, AmericaNet and Evantage) have a $35K cap. Ready Saver has no cap, but I was told by the bank's CSR that they do expect a rate cut sometime in the next few months.

For more info on these banks and for up-to-date rates, please refer to this table of the best savings and money market accounts.

Yes, the writing was on the wall for the Ready Saver rate which is now 1.75%.  Time to move some money to the last remaining top tier banks.
