Pushed a few thousand dollars from Bask to my externally linked account this morning. It reached the destination account in 12 hours and became available immediately. This is the fastest ACH transfer I have ever seen. Looks like Bask Bank has improved its ACH transfer efficiency :-)
Use an outside bank to transfer out. Link Bask with outside bank. Limits do not apply, as long as your outside bank will draw larger amounts out.
Bask will allow just the 1 external bank link that you used for the initial funding of your new Bask accnt and no more!! Simply put, they don't want to provide any paths for you to be able to transfer your cash out to higher paying banks. I logged into my practically dormant Bask accnt with the intent of depositing $50K with Bask. The 2 external banks I linked up months ago no longer hold cash, so I wanted to create a new external link with another bank to transfer the 50K into Bask with. But Bask will NOT allow me to open another external link. I now recall somebody in Bask feedback stating that if you already have more then one external bank link set up with Bask, then you are lucky. Because now when you open an accnt with them, that external bank used for the initial funding is going to be the only external link allowed! Of the 10 savings accounts I have, Bask is the only bank that has this obnoxious policy in affect.
Tried to open a savings account using the online form. Can't get past the first screen. When I click on 'Proceed to review' button it just freezes.
Tried over several days using different computers. My wife has the same problem.
Tried calling customer support but they had no idea what was wrong.
In the end gave up and went elsewhere.
