Overall Score

Costco customers get a better rate on the same old Capital One account. I'm not sure how long this arrangement is set to run, but it has been running a quarter on average better than CapitalOne's online savings. If you are a Costco member, go with this one. CapitalOne offers a fantastic product in every category, but rate. Their High Yield Money Market offers every feature available. The rate is usually 1/4 - 1/2% under the leader. If Check Writing and ATM access is a big feature for you, I highly recommend Capital One.

Rate History

Typical CapitalOne- They are usually in the top half, but due to all the services they offer don't expect them to ever lead the pack.

As a Cosco member, your looking at an additional 1/4 point of interest. So it is usually highly competitive.

Customer Service
Email and 24/7 phone support. The phone support I was provided was very knowledgable and well versed on polices and FDIC laws.
Security
They follow the standard practice. They could definitely do more.
