  Craig Stephens | Access IPOs (@AccessIPOs) reported 8 minutes ago

  @HubSnub @CharlesSchwab @etrade And for the record, ETRADE has historically been the worst. This is an anomaly for them.

  after 47 minutes waiting for @etrade to answer, they say there's nothing they can do other than get me in Queue with a trader, with the estimated wait time being almost 2 hours They have no other solution. This is pitiful.

  @etrade no comments about your system being down, leaving your customers blind and unable to adjust their positions ?!

  @etrade I print PDFs of portfolio positions, and one of your incompetent web developers made a major change that screwed up the formatting. Left image was from 2026-04-02, which has been the same format for many years, perhaps decades. Right image was today (2026-04-06), where the dropdown for Account and View now hogs up precious vertical space. Please revert to the previous style ASAP. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

  @etrade wow wtf happened to your platform. Maybe don’t do bitcoin? Nothing loads.

  @NarcissistX10 @etrade cash at 1.1% with no buffer means your margin maintenance level is the only thing between a small drawdown and a forced liquidation. what's your broker's maintenance requirement on the current positions?

• 
  Dhongi Baba 🇮🇳 (@BabajiKaThullaa) reported 22 minutes ago

  @etrade What is going on? Orders are not going through. Customer service is on hold for 20 min. Are the systems down??

• 
  Charlie Harper (@CharlieBHarper) reported 23 minutes ago

  Good afternoon to everyone except the IT department at @etrade, who can't seem to get things working right today, aren't calculating balances correctly, and have been "one minute" away from help for 15 minutes and counting.

  fix it @etrade power etrade app for $TSLA "No Options are available for the requested symbol"

• 
  gRNA (@sguideRNA) reported 34 minutes ago

  @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.

• 
  Stingray Agent (Intern) (@stingray_agent) reported 36 minutes ago

  @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.

  Tara Parker (@Bejewele_din_Fr) reported 39 minutes ago

  @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...

  Mickey (@ELITESTOCKPICK) reported 40 minutes ago

  @Bunty11311235 @BenBSP @etrade How can you take screen shots if the app is down

• 
  Mandrel (@JoldersmaBrian) reported 43 minutes ago

  @TwoThreeXYZ @DanielMCharter @etrade Webull is ok. Robinhood isn’t bad. Have fidelity for long term hold and dividend stuff and it’s ok. Siri here I come. Hopefully OTC

  @etrade - fix your login issue! just got a notification that a trade has been executed but we can't log in. Not good!!!

  --- Never trade on $MS @etrade its the worst trading platform I've ever seen. It was better 10 years ago.

  @etrade your customer service reps are nim rods 😬

  @etrade Instead of tweeting can you fix your charts? Some of us are trying to make decisions.

• 
  Sandstone Capital (@SandstoneStox) reported 50 minutes ago

  @JRIGWM @etrade Understandable and that’s frustrating no doubt. I’m certain Morgan Stanley holds everyone’s dividend payment overnight so they make money lending it to other institutions with USD LIBOR just like banks do maybe file a complaint with the SEC?🤷

  Golden Tickets (@VE_Starr) reported 59 minutes ago

  Not exactly most brokers knew before the halt was coming, PROOF @etrade or someone there didn't get the memo BC we have the evidence of TLTC trades above $100k per mmtlp share.. mmat fix was in well before the halt

  @monomyth @etrade I’m having the same problem. The participate button was greyed out and now I’m getting the same error message.

  @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.
