    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?

    @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?

    @etrade 's hold music has now given me PTSD. I have never had such poor customer service in my entire life! A month into this nightmare and I still have no access or answers.

    @BLSmith2112 @TeslaBoomerMama @etrade I'm very confident that's the case. Those questions read like a bad HR questionnaire for a job posting. They don't work well either. Bummer, sorry that happened to you.

    @etrade Bad look and no info on the downage. Def need to move a chunk of my money to my Fidelity acct so I can at least have more balance. This happens too often with this platform.

  • Vocabutesla
    Virtualarry (@Vocabutesla) reported

    @TeslaBoomerMama @etrade I have been with etrade for over 10 years. They have always been great. Absolutely no fees for banking with minimum balance which my Roth satisfied. With that comes the ups and downs of “virtual banking” I have not had a traditional brick and mortar bank since year 2000. Back then people thought i was crazy “your information will get hacked etc”. The etrade acquisition by Morgan Stanley complicated some things. Extremely slow to update systems to modern day standards. Took years to fix some online issues and services offered. Simple things like access to Zell. I registered for ipo access over a year ago. Nothing to do with Soace X. Everything to do with being prepared for future opportunities. I would be cautious with situations where someone is registering too close to the time they want to participate in an ipo. Not saying this person is not qualified but sometimes the things need time to iron out. Phone calls with etrade representatives etc.

    @etrade Why dont you post here how long will the outage last instead of leaving so many people guessing? If you dont have an estimate, that is fine too, but right now you have a lot of people anxious and helpless without any information.

    @etrade The entire E*Trade platform is down and has been for a while. Nobody answering the phone?? Provide an update!

    Our stock purchase is through @etrade but the service is awful and can't connect to anyone. Next employee pulse meeting, will bring this up to see if a different platform would be better who provides better support.

    @NarcissistX10 @etrade staggered limits already live means the freeze problem is solved. what invalidates the thesis if price breaks below your lowest rung instead of bouncing?

    @wallstengine i bet mostly @etrade accounts that can't stand their new trading platform which they refuse to fix after 6 months released

    @etrade Your api kind of sucks. It's slow and missing information. I could help you fix this.

    Justin Reda (@nitsujader) reported

    Hey @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?

    @grok @Grok I think @etrade is robbing me too. All of a sudden my brokerage account is way down is value when the market is up. Odd.
