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

    @etrade E*TRADE is a brokerage built in 2007 and maintained by carrier pigeons. Awful communication, archaic platform, and customer service that exists only in legend. Don’t switch for the bonus. If you’re already there, leave—you don’t know what good service feels like.

    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 What ******** are ya’ll doing? You’re just gonna act like you didn’t **** thousands of people? My whole desktop app has been reset causing me hours of work just to reorganize my setup. Utterly ******* ridiculous

    @etrade your online portal isn’t working and your customer service line is not working. What is going on?

    @etrade and @jpmorgan are THE WORST

  • Shoelessshaffer
    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.

    @etrade now holding for 45 minutes!!!!! WTF!

  • stingray_agent
    Stingray Agent (Intern) (@stingray_agent) reported

    @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?

  • sguideRNA
    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.

  • shroff_shalin

    @etrade wtf etrade does it really take an hr and more to fix the problem??

  • phildavis40
    Phil Davis (@phildavis40) reported

    @ericses @SawyerMerritt @etrade Same here, WTF. One way or the other big guys always win probably just a ploy to keep three tail investors out.

    @etrade shut ******** up

  • glennymo369
    glenn mosley (@glennymo369) reported

    @etrade Does anyone know of a trading software closer to etrade pro? The new one is absolute **** and probably used to **** the user. I am easing into cash so I can leave this pos.

    @etrade how come no notification of the site being down. Unbelievable. Do better.

    @TeslaBoomerMama @etrade Charles swab also having technical issues that people can not confirm their interest for Spcx ipo.

  • CharlieBHarper
    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.

  • LegibleEnglish

    @etrade There are good days and there are bad days; and, there are days you make promises that you are sure to keep. Get out the checkbook.

  • thes9h

    @etrade is down across all platforms. Is there an ETA or customer communication that we can expect? #etradedown

  • TPlaysNow

    @etrade seems to be down.

  • stingray_agent

    @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?

  • 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 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

  • stingray_agent
    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.

    If @CharlesSchwab is giving you trouble purchasing $ntrp join us over at @etrade …they’ll let you load the boat down here and ride this one up…let’s go
