    @etrade Hi Team, I am from India and my employer has asked us to open an E-Trade account which I have done but when I login, I dont receive the OTP. Please help in closing this and I am not able to reach the CC as well

  • iDhanish iDhanish (@iDhanish) reported

    @etrade If the first name in an existing E*TRADE Employee Stock Plan account has more than 17 characters, the system does not allow the savings account to be created. I have contacted customer service multiple times, but they have been unable to resolve the issue.

  • RichHJohnson Rich Johnson (@RichHJohnson) reported

    @etrade over the last several months I will say that you all have provided the lowest level of service ever. Your front line teams are great, but what ever is happening behind the scenes is clearly broken.

  • x0cade x0cade (@x0cade) reported

    @panicfader @etrade what ********

  • JohnstonFredJ Fred Johnston (@JohnstonFredJ) reported

    @iDhanish @etrade You think that's bad, try transferring in money and they lock your account for over a week. Avoid etrade at all cost - went downhill since Morgan bought them.

  • brentadubya Brent Austin Watson (@brentadubya) reported

    Yo @RobinhoodApp , why are you guys being so slow getting my ROTH cost basis transferred to @etrade?? I'm not messin' with your money, why are you messin' with mine?

  • TheeTeddyTed TEDDY (@TheeTeddyTed) reported

    @otium33 @hypergrowth102 At the very least they could've got me started in the stock market in 2005. I finally started investing in 2019. Let's just say all the @etrade commercials were too funny to realize that I myself could invest. They did great on the comedy, terrible on relaying "you can invest"

  • PikachOTC PikachOTC (@PikachOTC) reported

    @BawzRs @etrade Insane. No way this is legal. If it's a technical bug they should refund everyone.

  • LegendaryTony2 Tony Jimenez (@LegendaryTony2) reported

    @etrade Why does your brokerage keep charging me double for options contracts? I paid a certain amount and your service doubles it, making me lose more than I intend. What is going on with your service?

  • Medved_Trader Medved Trader (@Medved_Trader) reported

    if you are unable to trade with @etrade through MT today, just FYI, contrary to what their support tells you if you call, the issue is NOT in MT. the issue is that the keys they provide us to connect via the API - expired. And it is next to impossible to get a hold of anyone there.

  • SingMyCanarie The Canarie (@SingMyCanarie) reported

    @etrade while typing this i lost $150 from these issues alone

  • StockJockAT Stock **** (@StockJockAT) reported

    So I have been using Etrade Pro for about 10 years now. I've made a lot of money on that platform @etrade . They haven't fixed the bugs on it in years but nonetheless I've used it because its that pretty of a platform. But now, they are getting closer and closer to releasing Power Etrade Pro, their new trading platform. And let me tell you, if this is the final version, I'll be forced to change brokers whenever they decide to shut down the version I've used for years. The new version is clunky, window sizing isn't good, top margins on the windows are thicccc, time and sales window won't allow me to make is smaller without having to use a scroll bar, time and sales won't let me get rid of the bid/ask collumn, L2 after hours doesn't work, and I can go on and on. I'll be looking at @trade0us , @TradeLightspeed and whatever broker the comments recommend. Just not TOS. They are banning successful day traders and I want no part of that.

  • kchoi246 Fiona (@kchoi246) reported

    @DayTraderWayne @etrade One month is way short to settle down with new platform even though it is from the same company. I had migrated to TOS (Think or Swim) in August last year after Schwab bought TD Ameritrade last year. I still have to check out TOS applications to implement. Best of luck!

  • rmsara227 Options Trader (@rmsara227) reported

    @etrade any issues with power trade mobile app. I am not able to execute any trades

  • StockJockAT Stock **** (@StockJockAT) reported

    @Felunk007 @etrade Yeah I think the amount has something to do with it. 400 trades seems to be an issue.

  • brucemcpherson Bruce McPherson 🇪🇺🇫🇷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@brucemcpherson) reported

    ok @etrade - here's a question from those outside the US. If you've lost/broken your phone the only way to reset your 2fa is to call a call center on a US number and pay an unpredicatable call charge. Why don;t you use a normal 2FA system like everyone else?

  • CommonSense_615 Tom Lee’s Eyebrows (@CommonSense_615) reported

    Hey @etrade if I have you can’t save my subscriber agreements and I have to have extra clicks to login for over 2 weeks, I’ll just move my money to Robinhood

  • RakiecJr Christian American (@RakiecJr) reported

    @etrade Is the company name Coventry that's trying to buy your life insurance the only problem is the only pay you 5% of what it's worth, these are thieves, don't trust them contact your life insurance company in do business with them.

  • BawzRs Gage (@BawzRs) reported

    @PikachOTC @etrade Crazy, @etrade why allow opening transactions if you can't sell? Guy deserves a full refund at the price he called in to support.

  • 5ndrewle Andrew (@5ndrewle) reported

    so @etrade executes their Stop on Quote Orders when the bid hits the stop price. WTF is this? It's called 'stop on quote' not 'stop on bid'. @fidelity would never do this. Transferring all of my money to fidelity now. What a dumb way to lose $1500!

  • SingMyCanarie The Canarie (@SingMyCanarie) reported

    @etrade Second, please remove all those damn automatic dropdowns as it causes all the slowness. It also causes misclicks and again, losing money on spreads in daytrading due to missing the window of the trade.

  • iDhanish iDhanish (@iDhanish) reported

    @etrade @etrade - I have been unable to create a Premium Savings Account for the past three months due to a glitch in your online portal.

  • FalakTak11 Manu Sharma (@FalakTak11) reported

    @etrade your contact for support in India mentioned in the document always found Switched off. Please check and update the new number or support assistant process.

  • APEXPENNYSTOCKS buyittradeit (@APEXPENNYSTOCKS) reported

    They have a really good customer service and are very professional. Granted they are huge and @etrade has everything from banks 401ks futures and stock trading. Now unless you pay extra you do not get real time charts on stocks you do on futures. ThinkorSwm gives you everything if you have the right amount in your account.

  • RichyRich30z Money Talks (@RichyRich30z) reported

    @etrade Why isn’t your customer service number not working?

  • SuperRobotGX Super Robot 🤖🦒 (@SuperRobotGX) reported

    @PikachOTC @etrade DOWN WITH THE OPRESSOR!
