Bankrate Review Summary

Interest rates, personal finance, financial calculators, and more await you at Bankrate.com. Most people come here looking for interest rates on loans and reviewers say that this is one of the good reasons to visit the site. They also like the helpful financial calculators that assist consumers with installment debt and elimination of outstanding bills in the most efficient way. “Solid, to the Point Rate Tables and Personal Finance Editorial”, is how one reviewer describes Bankrate.com. However, there are those who feel Bankrate.com is overrated, like one reviewer who makes the comment “Look Around- There are Better Sites with Up to Date Information”. The tendency to not offer timely interest rate information is the greatest fault of Bankrate.com and even though its personal finance information and calculators are useful, Bankrate.com still ranks as an average to below average Finance Web Site overall.

Bankrate is not the place to go for unbiased information on mortgage rates. The companies that advertise are paying Bankrate so how reliable are they?
