Yesterday, Money.com posted an article (here) citing new account totals for ING Direct's Electric Money checking account:
- 60,000 accounts, a 1.5% penetration of the
bank's 4 million accounts - $2.2 billion in new deposits, a hefty $37,000
per account*
Two weeks ago (Feb. 1), the bank said it had attracted 42,000 accounts (see post here).
