FYI: HSBC Online-Only Savings 4.25% APY

[Nikuk]

i started a year and a half ago with internet savings, i got a firm 6.0% on my account, and overall i have 4 with hsbc, also my credit card had a year of no interest which expires in april, but i had a 4k credit line, bought my engine etc books for the enxt year and any parts i needed and ive been paying it off like a small loan over the last 9 months, payed off 9500 bux, worked out really well

theyre doing it again for noobs to their credit card except now its 6 months

I’m sorry, what?

You took out a credit card @ 0% and deposited the funds into a 6% svgs? Then paid the card off before the promo expired?

Congrats! I’m glad you paid it off before the end of the promo.

Phew… cause I really hope that you weren’t suggesting the card into savings move is a good idea.

So, this thread is not about credit cards.

And why would that be a bad idea?
