I have ING, is it worth changing to Emigrant?
I'm in the same boat... it's about 0.5% more at emigrant/hsbc than at ing direct. I might switch, myself. ING always seems to lag behind the others in increasing rates.
They do and they will continue to for the foreseeable future. ING has too much money in deposits now and there mortgage business isn't doing that well. Thus they're not able to loan out all the money that people are giving them, thus they have no reason to increase their rates which would obviously pay more out to the customers and drive people to give them more money.
Here's the current list from FW:

BofA checking account customers can add a AAA money market account link onto their existing checking debit card. Some representatives incorrectly claim that accounts domiciled in different states cannot be linked on a single debit card (or ATM card) because they fail to realize the additional system entry steps needed to create multi-state links.
