KEN: Is it possible to add "30-month" to the main drop-down CD RATES menu on the main page?

30 months is a sweet spot for many of us, and many places (like here) offer a 30mo CD, just as many places offer an 18mo CD.

You have all the other choices up there (6mo, 1yr, 18mo, 2yr, 3yr, 4yr, 5yr, 6+) but not 30mo.

Would it be possible to add the 30mo term to the main drop-down for CD Rates? Otherwise, it's near impossible to compare rates except hunt-and-peck one by one to see which places offer 30mo terms. Many of my CDs are 30mos from various places, and it would really help if just one more catagory -- 30mo -- could be added to the quick drop-down list....

Thank you!

Thanks for your suggestion. I'll forward your request to our website team. The main concern with new tables is if there are enough CDs to fill the tables. As you mentioned, the 30mo term may be about as common as the 18mo term. Currently, our 24mo table includes terms from 21mo to 29mo and our 36mo table includes terms from 30mo to 41mo. Based on this, a new 30mo table would include terms from 27mo to 32mo.
