    @etrade the fact that i was trading with no issues until you decided in the middle of the trading day that you needed my SSN card and locked my account is unforgivable. You cost me $$$!!!!! Your team’s stupid decision made me lose money.

  • OddStockTrader Cody Pavlak (@OddStockTrader) reported

    Yo @etrade @MorganStanley I've tested my mouse for glitches and... I've had multiple double clicks and even somehow gotten short a stock today without ever clicking the SHORT button. Please fix your software.

  • jain_vipin vipin jain (@jain_vipin) reported

    @etrade I need to close my account . Tried doing it online , but it says I need to speak to a customer care executive for this . I have been trying to reach your customer care for last 4 days with waiting time of more than 2 hours . The call gets dropped after an hour .

  • __Detailing Ethan Tate (@__Detailing) reported

    @etrade you’re customer service is absolutely terrible.

  • AdamMinter Adam Minter (@AdamMinter) reported

    @etrade i can't access my account, and - when using your site - i can't access a human being to help me. all that i can access is an auto-reply robot that can't help me. can you recommend a new online brokerage for me to use?

  • AnindaKar7 Aninda Kar (@AnindaKar7) reported

    @etrade estimated wait time to reach a representative is more than 2 hours .Kudos to your awesome pathetic service !

  • abadger Art Badger (@abadger) reported

    @etrade Wrong. I have tried multiple combinations of cache clearing, private/incognito browse, other browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Brave), different computers (Windows, Mac), to no avail. And I know of at least one other user who is having the same experience. You have a problem.

  • lancehouston Lance Houston, J.D., LL.M. (@lancehouston) reported

    Sorry @etrade you just lost a customer. Slow customer service, 2 hour hold times to speak with an agent, barely working website and your app is glitchy. #etrade #dobetter

  • AlexGar19229948 Alex Garza (@AlexGar19229948) reported

    @SNICKERS That @etrade commercial was stupid. I’m eating a @milkyway

  • superusr2012 SK (@superusr2012) reported

    @etrade I have been waiting for 1+ hour to get to a CSR for phone support because your website keep giving errors when doing transaction! Online chat was unhelpful as it can get. Why is your phone support so slow?? Please can someone get back to me ASAP!

  • talitapalitaeu Talita Faria | ela/dela (@talitapalitaeu) reported

    @etrade I am having a really hard time trying to get my user Id retrieved and it’s also impossible to talk with your support by chat or phone! What am I supposed to do? #BadCustomerService #StockToTrade #StockMarket

  • toddcohenspeaks Inspiring Global Audiences to Feel Fantastic (@toddcohenspeaks) reported

    @etrade Really stupid commercial.

  • JGLetsGo JGSwift (@JGLetsGo) reported

    @etrade has made an error on my 1099 so please everyone look closely. It is showing “other income” from a Capital Mortgage Plus that I don’t have any affiliation with and yet no record of the transaction under “transactions” study your 1099-Misc page

  • Jonnysbc Jonnysb ☮️ (@Jonnysbc) reported

    @etrade Where? Perhaps, y'know, a link would be helpful. This is the worst social media account on Twitter.

  • WizDayTrader Miguel Ferreira 🎱 🐢 🥷 🔮 (@WizDayTrader) reported

    @etrade $TSLA down $14.69 (my client won't like that) lol

  • SandruSom THEE Kathy Sandru (@SandruSom) reported

    @etrade Can you tell me whether or not your site is down? I have been attempting to contact Customer Service & there’s a 2 hour wait on the phone. I need to speak to a rep ASAP

  • Weezus420 ⚡️Weezus⚡️ (@Weezus420) reported

    @CampingOTC1978 Yeah well doesn’t help when @etrade or @TDAmeritrade don’t put out the press releases from company, just bash PRs from a third party. I think everybody who holds a position $rgbp $rgbpp should call their broker and express how much bs this is. How many eyes and $ haven’t seen yet

  • MugsHalas Lovie Smith's Beard (@MugsHalas) reported

    @etrade WTF was that commercial?

  • elpincheguey24 Deltron Jackson (@elpincheguey24) reported

    @etrade not to mention the 3 hours I spent on hold for your team to virtually shrug their shoulders and tell me that they don’t know what’s going on and can’t fix it…… fix my account TODAY before you cause more damage than you already have..

  • sabrams7 s (@sabrams7) reported

    @gabe_rich_ @etrade system down

  • BPayneAMC_GME Brian Payne🌕 (@BPayneAMC_GME) reported

    @ILIKETHESTOCK35 ****. @etrade

  • AdamMinter Adam Minter (@AdamMinter) reported

    @etrade i can't access my account, and - when using your site - i can't access a human being to help me. so two things. first, how do i reach a real human being who can restore access to my ira account? and second, can you recommend a new online brokerage?

  • JeffreyJonesJr Jeffrey Jones Jr (@JeffreyJonesJr) reported

    @listentotherowe @etrade I've had to remain on hold for 4 hours and 51 minutes before. E*Trade has terrible service in my opinion.

  • NeilStrategy Neil Strategy Group (@NeilStrategy) reported

    @PRSA_NCC @etrade wasn’t bad!

  • __chefski__ chefski (@__chefski__) reported

    @etrade I can't log into my account because your login process rejects any password I give it (even if I _just_ changed it). What gives?

  • tes1m211 tes.3m.21 (@tes1m211) reported

    @etrade has been spotty today. I could make some trades. But my #Ribinhood worked fine. My advice, & I said this before: split your money between multiple platforms in case only 1 is having an issue. At least you’re not stuck. I do NOT hold $HOOD

  • elpincheguey24 Deltron Jackson (@elpincheguey24) reported

    @etrade If you needed the stupid card you should have asked for it BEFORE you let me trade for a month instead of shutting off my f-ing account mid-day. Who does that?!?!?!? Cut me a check for the losses incurred!

  • elpincheguey24 Deltron Jackson (@elpincheguey24) reported

    @etrade Friday you locked my account mid-day because you suddenly decided I need to provide you a SSN card, with ZERO notice. The $$ you cost me on expiring options is inexcusable! Your business practice is terrible. Fix this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ACKKatie Katie B (@ACKKatie) reported

    @etrade Testing out customer service for new brokerage; your wait time is 30 minutes. Nope.
