Probably with the competition with other online banks they have nixed them. If there was fees, I wouldn't have probably signed up with them because I really dislike bank fees.

There were several fees that were included. Have you encoutered any fees since you've started? They probably changed their fee structure since then though.

I started one with ING back a while ago when I thought I had money--they gave me the $25 bonus. I am trying very, very hard not to touch it while I'm paying off my debt. I know it's there in case I can't find a way to make it, but with my blogging friends' support, I can make it! I don't do regular deposits; I transfer $5 maybe once a month, but at least it's something! Good for you!

Even $5 or $10 a week builds up a lot over a year ($260 or $520). When you get to $250, then bounce it over to ING to get their $25 bonus (if you want an ING referral so you can get that bonus, just ask!). debtinseattle is spot-on – try an auto deduction straight into that account.

I had reservations when I started my ING account 5 years ago but now I don't know why! It truly is the best thing - I set aside $25 every pay period & I don't even think about it. I never check the balance either because I just keep it out of sight out of mind. The only time I access this account is during Christmas time because it has become my Christmas fund. Keep up the good work! Good for you for taking the step in starting that account. I had reservations when I started my ING account 5 years ago but now I don’t know why!
