It's hard to believe that less than 6 months ago, this account was paying 5.41%.

Midas89, I thought of 2 banks where your cousin could open savings accounts that won't cut their interest rates regardless of what happens with the economy: BOA and Chase!! They both pay 0.01%. If she deposits $10k into her account, after one year, she would earn $1 in interest!!

@ichaelm First, I laughed, thank you for that. Second, I can do one better than your suggestions. Check out what savings account rate the following bank is offering for their savings account: https://www.associatedbank.com/personal/savings-and-investing/savings-accounts/associated-savings-account

With this savings account no one would ever have to worry about what the Fed does or doesn't do with rates.

WOW!  "An account for our customers who do not wish to earn interest on deposit products" And they even charge you a maintenance fee if your balance is less than $300!! Well, let's not forget that until 2022 in Switzerland and Denmark, and until 2023 in Japan, those 3 countries all had negative interest rates!

Forget about Max.
CB Standalone High Yield Savings Account is 3.25% APR, Unadjusted High Yield as it goes.
Whoever wants to know the rate unadjusted , has to monitor it daily. Short time ago IGR made it the point of the concern.

Something funky is going on with Customer bank as T-Mobile Money will now transition to Coastal Community Bank instead effective 01 April. T-Mobile money customers must authorize the change by 18 March. If change not approved, T-Mobile money states that account will be closed and a check will be sent to the address on record.

That's interesting. Coastal Community Bank is the same bank which fintech Evergreen Wealth uses. I wonder if Evergreen is severing its relationship with Coastal Community.

CB Yield Shield is tied to Fed Funds and is currently paying 4.23% APY. Seems like best option.

@jph224 I agree with you that Yield Shield is the better option over Max, even though it could be considered disappointing that there has to be $25,000 minimum in the account in order to continue to get the current 4.23% APY.
