Yeah we have very easy way to give you your TD account directly. If this were to happen, we would give access to everyone and ensure they received the information to take over thei…

Thanks for the feedback and thoughts. I guess those aspects of TD are nice, but if you ever make a mistake, they don't handle it gracefully.

1) Easier UI and management of your I Bonds. Treasury Direct has lots of issues and you'll likely end up having to call in and wait on hold for 2 hours with customer support at som…

We don't. There is a completely optional way to pay us what you want when you buy the I Bond, but this is a brand awareness play for us. Our hope is to drive new acquisition and to…
