This CD could be considered a MM. They are offering a 9 month No Penalty CD at 4.25%, 10,000 Min. You can withdraw anytime with no penalty after 6 days. I have used this bank for awhile and they offer DIF which covers any amount over FDIC.

They are offering a Passbook saving account at 4.07% with 25K Min. Rate guaranteed till 05/01/2006. Might only be good as a local deal, Located just North of Boston, as I don't know if you must go in for a Passbook account. Also offering a 8 month CD at 4.5%. Another plus is they have SIF which covers any amount over FDIC, Might now be time to take some $$ out of ING to open with them

Not sure why you listed utilities like Verizon. Comcast and Cingular, Those would be considered credit accounts. I was surprised recently when my home phone thru Verizion suddenly showed on my report after having it for over 10 years, Did not mind as it made my FICO go up. Anyone interested in maintaining a good credit score had better now treat utilities bill payments just like credit card and loan payments

Regulators tell banks to fortify Internet security
By Associated Press | October 18, 2005
Federal regulators will require banks to strengthen security for Internet customers through authentication that goes beyond mere user names and passwords, which have become too easy for criminals to exploit.
Bank websites are expected to adopt some form of ''two-factor" authentication by the end of 2006, regulators with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council said in a letter to banks last week.
In two-factor authentication, customers must confirm their identities not only through something they know, like a PIN or password, but also with something they physically have, like a hardware token with numeric access codes that change every minute.
Other types of two-factor authentication include costlier hardware involving biometrics or ''smart" cards that would be inserted into designated readers on a user's computer. Banks might also issue one-time passwords on scratch-off cards or require ''secret questions" about a customer's account.

Discipline through limits
The discipline derives from a cap. By law, you are allowed to make no more than six withdrawals and transfers per month if the transactions are overdraft protection transfers, automatic bill deductions, wire transfers, telephone transfers and PC banking transfers. However, money market account holders are usually allowed to make unlimited free deposits and withdrawals from ATMs in their network.
Money market account holders are allowed to write up to three checks per month. If the owner exceeds the allotment, a bank often will charge between $5 and $15 per check. Repeat offenders may have their accounts closed.
