I love ING! I kept my money in a savings account with them right until I got my rewards checking account. At that point, the interest in the rewards checking was too high for me to justify leaving my money with ING. I still keep my account open in case I want to use it again, though.

Great tip about the "no penalty CD" at Ally. Like Stephanie, I keep my emergency fund at ING, but the Ally deal sounds 2x better. Thanks! Helen’s last blog post..Why do I need to create an LLC?

I keep my emergency fund at ING Direct, in one of their savings accounts. This works well because I also have a checking account with them, and instant transfers between the two accounts. That way, if I need the money quickly, I can have it in my checking account instantly (as long as I can get online). Although I should probably hold at least some of my emergency fund in cash.

What about Ally bank’s (formerly GMAC bank) “no penalty CD” that has no penalty whatsoever for withdrawal? http://www.ally.com/certificate-of-deposit/no-penalty-cd/no-penalty-cd-overview.html
