I currently have a 3.5% from HSBC; as well as a 4.25% CD; their online tools are intuitive and easy to use. The transfer feature is a bit slow when moving money into or out of HSBC (takes about 3 days for the transfers to complete).

I have this HSBC Online Savings Account, and it has been quite easy to use. Agree with PatMan that the transfers should be able to be recognized faster (ie. I notice the withdrawal within 1 day from my linked account, but HSBC doesn't show it available for 2 additional days). This affects the interest payment - which is based on "average available daily balance".

They change your interest rate and don't even let you know. I had them back when they were offering 4.51 and it dropped to 2.01 within 3 months. Currently I'm getting 2.65 with dollar one direct, which is also an online saving account and they have no fees.

I have this account and have had it for years. Yes, the interest rate fluctuates based on going rates, but HSBC is a rock-steady institution with great customer service, and an awesome web interface. THey make moving money in and out of the HSBC account really easy.
