Opened the account on 4/16, and money did not tranfer in until 4/28. Called and left a message, never got a call back. Called again, got an answer on the toll-free line and the rep took care of the ACH hangup on the spot. I would imagine that they are overwhelmed with volume after bankaholic listed them.

If you transfer funds from your external checking account to this savings account how much can you transfer a Day? per month? Is there a limit?

However, I am going to try to use Etrade to initiate a transfer into Darby because I suspect it will only take a day.

Be aware that any ACH transfers initiated with them are capped at 10k daily and 25k monthly. You must use 3rd party ACH to pull larger amounts from them or else fed-wire ($20 outgoing fee).

Didn't get an account number, no one returned my phone calls and it looks like an intern made their website....I would expect this 3% to drop in the near future.

They had the 2.6% savings account that has dropped a full % point since I've opened up an account. I still have the 3K in there but refuse to drop anymore in there unless they raise those rates again. HSBC did this.
