| Aug 30, 2012 at 18:23 | comment | added | Dilip Sarwate | @ChrisW.Rea There are several sites (that I won't name) with interest rate information and claiming virtues such as being comprehensive, objective, and free. Whether they indeed enjoy these properties now, or will enjoy them in 2015 if this question comes up again in three years time, is not absolutely clear to me. | |
| Aug 30, 2012 at 18:01 | comment | added | Chris W. Rea | @DilipSarwate Problem is: last time we had exactly such a question, in 2009, the information in answers was specific to then and hardly relevant today. That version of the question & its answers were "too localized in time." I deleted it. We need a canonical answer to this question that doesn't mention specific banks or rates (in agreement with littleadv on the advice issue), but rather pointers to resources (e.g. is there a somewhat objective directory of high interest rate accounts somewhere?) or else a strategy to locate such information. Not a sequence of answers "Bank X, rate Y%". | |

| Aug 30, 2012 at 17:25 | comment | added | Dilip Sarwate | @ChrisW.Rea If this question has been discussed before and has received good answers, why not close this one right away, (that is, without waiting for enough votes to close) with a link saying "Possible duplicate of ...."? I think you have the power to do this as moderator? | |
| Aug 30, 2012 at 17:23 | comment | added | littleadv | I think investment advices should be off-topic. Re the high-yield savings account - ING is as high as it gets. | |
| Aug 30, 2012 at 16:28 | comment | added | Chris W. Rea | Folks, do we want this kind of question? I think this has been discussed before. Perhaps we need a canonical answer to a question like this? Is there somewhere we can point the OP and others who come asking the same thing? | |
