I'll keep most of my cash in the Savings account, and i am going to set up DD to the checking to avoid the fee, since i won't be keeping the $5,000 in the checking.....

The Complete Savings rate of 3.30% APY is definitely better now. It looks like the Max-Rate Checking APY has now dropped to 3.01%. The Complete Savings rate of 3.30% APY is definitely better now.

I didn't think of it before writing this, probably because I've never seen a bank offer a better rate on checking than savings. In this case, if you keep more than $5k in checking at all times, it would make sense to dump the savings account. Yeah, Terrence, you raise a good point.

I have both but I'm trying to figure out why I don't just close out my savings and dump it all in the 3.25% checking account. Assuming I plan on always having at least $5000 in it, does that make sense? Thoughts?
