American Express Savings Account
« on: March 30, 2011, 06:38:10 PM »
does anyone here have a Savings account with AMEX? I just found they offer 1.15% no minimum

How does it work, will i be able to swipe my AMEX card to transfer founds into my savings account?  and how can i take out money from it?

any help?

You would rather 1.15% taxable over 1.2 AA miles non-taxable?

Doubtful.

They probably use check and/or ACH to deposit/withdraw funds.

Yes, I just check it with them, the only take check or bank transfer, unless Dan comes up with a way around.
