Depends on the terms on the cd. Usually just lose interest on the last compounding period. Mine are 1 year with interest paid quarterly, so 3 months interest at .1% is… not worth worrying about.Appears they're in some type of financial crisis. Doing away with personal lines of credit. I have a cd they're, since it was Wachovia and first atl. I wonder how much of a hit I'd take if I cashed it out. I renew every 5 years and I'm half way into it.
