    The rates everywhere are dropping. ING does also.

    I have ING and these other three banks. ING is my least liked of the four.

    because the prime lending rate is near zero. Plus ING yields are way better than national banks like Citi and Bank of America. Edventually it will go up not this year though hang in there.
