Our Verdict

Please keep comments to discussing this account/hard pull soft pull. I really don’t enjoy moderating comments when people just go entirely off topic. In terms of this account itself it seems like a good option compared to other high interest accounts. We still need to know if it’s a hard or soft pull. We will be adding this to our best high yield savings account pages.
