so what is else is out there that's worth it?

btw you can switch after a guaranteed rate is done at the end of 2017 so if you are on top of things could work?
If you are able to ensure that you get switched at the right time. Most people are not since they miss the switching deadline or totally forget about it.
Feelings don't care about your facts

they told me by phone they would send me another fixed rate offer approx 2 months prior to end of the first fixed rate term but looks like they don't have a good name?
what else are people signing up for?

Went into the new The Upper Crust (C&G location) and I must say that their menu is extremely inventive for what Lakewood was used to. Never saw Mahi mahi or snapper on a menu before. Everything looks very appetizing, and the service seems great so far. Lets hope it lives up to the expectations long term...

I ordered a mushroom pizza which had mushrooms which must've be from a can. Most Lakewood restaurants have Limited lettuce varieties, no mint leaves, strawberries etc.  There are plenty of ingredients that You cannot find in a Lakewood restaurant that are standard elsewhere (not that it's necessary a bad thing)

That is strange. Yeast is not chometz.

Isn't yeast seor which is also asur?

perhaps there are other ingredients that are problematic not sure or maybe just kelim

what is clear is there is a kosher for pesach version and one that is not
