    @etrade Fix your site now. Its costing people money

    gRNA (@sguideRNA) reported

    @etrade why is it taking you 2 months to fix a cost basis after my equity was transferred to my @etrade account. Probably the biggest mistake I made was to transfer my account to @etrade.

    @etrade How about you guys fix your power trading app first

  • jayrfletcher
    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.

    @etrade FALSE ALARM. I just now remembering the password and email. I really need to write down my credentials. 😓😓😓😓😓😓

    Charlie Harper (@CharlieBHarper) reported

    And after getting an agent, telling him the problem, I got a boilerplate answer about how balances are calculated rather then the agent addressing the error. His follow up - after 20+ minutes of wasted time - was to tell me to call @etrade. We've institutionalized failure.

    Trevor Robinson (@TrevorGirlDad) reported

    It's incredible how frustrating @etrade is to deal with. Worst support, every back and forth takes 3-5 business days, no updates unless you reach out to check in, and the list goes on.

  • IPODave
    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.

    @etrade don't waste your time with these clowns-->ETRADE THEY'RE TERRIBLE BROKERS, they don't care about the little guy at all...they offer no real service to the consumer whatsoever.

    $SPX $7500 SHORT was my setup; I was late Chased for the channel bottom @FiboNachoLibre & VWAP touch on the 14:00EST candle open. Bagged some profit @etrade account. And there’s the slide 🛝 RSI midline dive! Shame on me for not holding a runner; really need to work on that. Broken record.

    @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

    @etrade @MorganStanley This has been an issue for many years. Several others too. I thought the issues would be fixed when Morgan Stanley bought them. No such luck. The app data still sucks!

  • kylem_org
    Kyle (@kylem_org) reported

    @etrade wtf is wrong with your platform and support staff, I canceled two orders. You have not returned my funds. Your support staff Patrick H, stated that because @SpaceX just did IPO “I’m sure there will be hiccups, and we will raise a case to have your funds returned”… Seriously wtf ?? I’ve lost prime trading opportunity due to your platform having hiccups ? And you’re now holding my funds because you can’t process order cancellations??

    @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.

    @etrade you're about to lose a customer because you don't have a consumer trading API

  • TargaGordon
    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!

    E*Trade @etrade might be the worst broker/investing app there is. Horrible app from 1997 that never changed, can’t buy anything overnight like other brokers, getting tired of it. Any suggestions on where else to take my money?

    @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

    @NarcissistX10 @etrade ha fair enough. the swing from 1.66% to -5.22% in one session says the printer jams fast though. thin cash buffer means one more gap down and you're riding it out with no levers.
