Another ING Deal-update

I mentioned earlier this month that my husband opened a Roth IRA with ING Direct with $1000 to take advantage of the deal that would get him an additional $76. And ING Direct, being wonderful has already deposited the extra $76. In just thirteen days, when most banks take three to four months for any bonus money.

This makes me happy, yet sad because ING Direct has been bought by Capital One and these wonderful deals are likely to be long gone very soon. I hope everyone takes advantage of the referral deal. If you do not know about the referral deal, it goes like this: you ask someone with an ING account to refer you, you open a savings account with $250 and then leave it there for 3 months and get $25 cash. Ten percent return without any risk, who could hate that?

  1. Sounds like you really like ING. Hope Capital One doesn't change that for you!

  2. I love free money and ING keeps handing it out. Between my DH and I we have made more than $200 from ING this year. I doubt Capital One will keep the referral system, sadly.

  3. Wow, I had no idea about the purchase. I wonder how that's going to affect the business.

  5. SF, the deal for $76 if you deposited $1000 was only valid during the first and second of this month. The only deal still going is the $25 for $250 or some different sharebuilder deals.
