Multiple roadblocks trying to set up a savings account with Jenius Bank and my application was ultimately declined, in spite of my multiple CDs among three banks, stock investments, eleven credit cards, and credits scores that have never been outside the 800s. I took my business elsewhere.

Jenius Bank has a D climate rating and is reviewed by BestCashCow here.
Despite committing to net-zero emissions by 2050 and the goals of the Paris Agreement, SMBC Group has failed to align its new policies with these goals. Its latest climate policy update lacks concrete action plans. SMBC has not yet disclosed meaningful short- and medium-term targets for emissions reduction nor have they revealed any meaningful measures taken to ensure that the bank is not financing fossil fuel supply expansion or its associated infrastructure, in line with the IEA's Net Zero Roadmap.

Attracted to the rate, but not ready for prime time. I opened the account so they got all my personal info but I never funded.
