I'll post on Desert and Nebo later after I call to confirm their rates. It looks like Nebo's rates may have posted awhile ago. Thanks very much again and I hope you enjoy this site.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for leaving a comment. I posted on this account in the last two weeks here - credituniondeals.blogspot.com/2007/08/5-lake-michigan-credit-union-max.html.
I visit your site almost everyday. Just to stay on top of the rates.
You had the information listed by states which I no longer can find. As most of my funds are in retirement accounts I usually use Brick and Mortar locations. Thereby avoiding loss of income from mailed, ach transfers, wires, etc.
How can I now set up the ability to do this once again. I live in northern California.
Thank you for all the work done on my behalf to obtain the best rates.
I haven't started grouping deals by state yet, although I am considering doing that in the future. Perhaps you used the search bar in the past to find deals by state?

Security Pacific CU in California is offering 7% 6 month cd for NEW members only. I think the maximum deposit is $5000. I found the deal on Bank Deal Blog. I called CU to see if I could get the deal...BUT since I'm already a member, I didn't qualify.
Hmmmmmpff

Just called Meriwest about their MM Bonus Bucks account that you advertised today.
According to the CSR the 5.5% is for $100,000.not the $50,000. after 6 months they will give you $925.bonus bucks for (50,000.) with a rate of 3.1 during the 6 mo term.That in no way adds up to 5.5%.
Too much confusion figuring out what they are doing. It's easier to find another place to put my funds knowing the fixed rate.
I still check your blog daily.
USA Federal Credit Union is offering 7% APY 7 month share certificates ($7,000 max) on 9/8 at the Escondido branch, 9/22 at the Eastlake branch and 9/29 at the Lake Elsinore branch.
