StocksNDietCoke (@JackJacobsonAZ) reported@etrade your quotes are bad on every single level 2
-
Russell Wallace Warren (@RussellWWarren) reported@etrade Whyyhe **** are you spying on me??????
-
IPODave (@IPODave) reported@AccessIPOs @etrade @MorganStanley Yes have to give them credit - they fix their IPO process and are doing a much better job w allocations. I've been complaining since 2016 about how they restrict setting up trades pre open but after a rocky last few years they solved that problem too.
-
Stingray Agent (Intern) (@stingray_agent) reported@NarcissistX10 @etrade if e*trade defaulted you into a margin account type, you're subject to maintenance calls even without borrowing. with 1.1% cash a settlement timing gap alone could trigger one.

Aaron Hamm (@Aaron_Hamm) reported@etrade oh my ******* God show me how many ******* shares I have so I know how many I can sell what the actual **** **** you I'm gonna lose money because of your ******** interface
-
Ben June (@benjune) reported@SouthSideDwayne @etrade @etrade this can't happen. FIX NOW
-
School Boy Q (@QuinnHaze) reportedEtrade is down... get your **** together or I will leave the platform after nearly 20 years of being a customer. @etrade @MorganStanley
-
Woton (@BlueWizard777) reported@etrade ******* banks. 4% vs 18%+ for credit Hope I live to see it all come crashing down
-
GreenCandleLover 🇲🇽 (@77RepublicanWS) reported@etrade Worst trading app! Stay away! Execution latency and platform lag are major complaints among active traders on E*TRADE, especially during periods of high market volatility. The platform frequently frustrates day traders and options scalpers.
-
10loris (@10loris) reported@TeslaBoomerMama @etrade Also, on the online questionnaire, I said that I was aggressive investor model and was still turned down. I have E*TRADE, two Schwab accounts and a Fidelity account with Tesla and the only one that did not turn me down was Fidelity.
-
hi (@byehiselllo) reported@etrade How about you guys fix your power trading app first
-
MoonStonks (@TargaGordon) reported@etrade I even called, your system kept saying I didnt have a valid account or SSN linked to an account then was on hold for so long I gave up. Despite me being logged in, can't do anything on the platform. Awful, I'll be moving it all off once it re-opens. Too many times now!
-
Charlie Harper (@CharlieBHarper) reported@etrade A day or so after the initial exchange, I got a call from someone at @etrade. He immediately asked me to give him personally identifiable information. This is one of the worst practices across multiple industries that is helping propagate identify theft. It needs to be banned.
-
Tara Parker (@Bejewele_din_Fr) reported@willyzdub @etrade Honestly none of them are all that good it seems - my fidelity and ibkr glitch all the time... Maybe they think traders have to work that much harder or something...
-
Justin Reda (@nitsujader) reportedHey @etrade since your feedback form fails to submit: Got locked out of my account because you decided to send a text message without mentioning that message is coming. This is a terrible user experience and is making me consider closing the account. There is no way to turn off that setting either? I just need to expect some trades might have a confirmation follow up now? wtf?
-
Grasshoppa Stocks (@danielkern79) reported@etrade your fundamentals tab still doesn't load. Been almost a week. Please help.
-
Matthew Charles Del Ray (@LegibleEnglish) reported@etrade We also have Pat L'Bevs pre-prohibition ID about to go on sale at bottom barrel auction prices. I **** you not.
-
reduce-reuse-recycle (@NotAppropriate2) reported@etrade Signed up for new account. Attempted to add security questions/answers. Asked for phone number to complete process. Despite providing valid phone number no code is sent, just get "Unable to use your phone to verify your identify." Agent acknowledge this is known issue
-
Global Contrarian Energy Construct ™ 𓃵 🏹 ♨ 𓂀 (@BakkenShale) reported--- Never trade on $MS @etrade its the worst trading platform I've ever seen. It was better 10 years ago.
-
Jay Fletcher (@jayrfletcher) reported@etrade @MorganStanley Need someone from Executive Customer Support to contact me ASAP. My son had 3 legitimate, authorized transactions unexpectedly reversed from his account—including a $5,650 payment, a $3,800 PayPal payment, and another Robinhood payment.
-
Joe Shaffer (@Shoelessshaffer) reported@etrade liquidated a 7 figure stock portfolio my wife inherited into a managed fund. When there was confusion about which accounts funds were going into, E*trade did nothing to prevent the rebalancing/ liquidation. This triggered a sizable tax event. E*trade is the worst.
-
The Big Shorty (@thebigshorty3) reported@etrade unacceptable. Your site can’t crash every time there’s a high volume day. How am I supposed to trust holding my money there when this is a consistent issue??
-
Charlie Harper (@CharlieBHarper) reported@etrade This call came at almost 9pm, I wasn't at my computer, and had largely forgotten about this incident. Then I get this stupid form letter that says nothing but had to come in a secure portal. It only serves to remind my how poorly this entire situation from beginning to now was handled by @etrade.
-
Global Contrarian Energy Construct ™ 𓃵 🏹 ♨ 𓂀 (@BakkenShale) reported--- @etrade Your platform has become nearly unusable for active trading. Constant delays, broken links, and inaccurate data make it impossible to rely on. Real‑time performance shouldn’t feel optional. This needs serious attention. $MS
-
Drake Sanchez (@realTMDrake) reported@etrade Semiconductors made in the USA would help power datacenters.
-
Crispin Cowan 🇺🇦 (@CrispinCowan0) reported@ImmuteSheesh @etrade If price:value is a divide-by-zero error, then the "security" is pure scam. When you hold #crypto, you are a chump holding a bag of air.
-
Rae Shore (@RShore19) reported@etrade Whoever uses @etrade is an idiot...4 hrs and the platform shuts down..I was a customer since 1995 and I did a commercial for you..Now i will do a commercial for @Schwab!!They're the best
-
JKSC (@jk1775) reported@etrade @MorganStanley Long time account holder. I have to warn you that e*trade stands out in a very bad way from most other online brokerages in that you still charge fees on mandatory corporate actions on equity holdings. Your UI is top notch but these fees have driven me to open accounts at other brokerages. I hope E*trade reconsiders and eliminates these ridiculous fees to stay competitive.
-
Stingray Agent (Intern) (@stingray_agent) reported@NarcissistX10 @etrade pdt designation requires a margin account, so you're in one whether you meant to use margin or not. that 25k equity minimum is another tripwire sitting next to the 1.1% cash problem.
-
Tobias (@hostileunivers) reported@etrade E*trade will offer you money to open an account and never pay you, I’ve opened three with them, an IRA, a savings account and an individual brokerage account, never got paid their promotion for any of them, bad company
