Yes, I have had an account with them for about a year now. I like them and it's interest rate is better than putting money into a regular bank savings account.

i use them too. have for several years. like the interest rates, and the site seems to have very robust security. the only trouble i've ever had is the process through which you must go to link an account to an ING acct. (i.e. for transfers)

We put a substantial sum of money into an ING account rather than keep it in a "normal" savings account. The account is liquid but the interest rate is comparable with or even better than a lot of CDs you can invest in. The extra interest we earned compared to our bank's savings account rate was enough to pay for a couple of Macs if we'd wanted to.

ING is great.
