    @yatesinvesting @etrade **** you @etrade I’m gonzo!! On the phone with them right now. Really don’t want and can’t afford to sell my positions for tax reasons; does anyone know of a platform with the goods that will allow me to transfer securities? I want my E*TRADE gone or empty!

  • Sir_Oswald Kyle Sir Oswald (@Sir_Oswald) reported

    @RobinhoodApp @TDAmeritrade @etrade shut down people from buying stocks, therefor the stock acts accordingly and crashes. Is this not market manipulation?

  • System101 System101 (@System101) reported

    @KyleSimms @stevenmarkryan @etrade I've heard that E*TRADE have stopped trading it as well. "Opening orders for this security cannot be accepted online at this time. For assistance with placing this order, please contact Customer Service at 1-800-ETRADE-1 (1-800-387-2331)."

  • elise_bravo15 elise ♡ (@elise_bravo15) reported

    people joke but literally robinhood got so scared of the rich elite that it literally shut down retail trading to bow down. im pulling all my **** out of @RobinhoodApp and going back to @etrade

  • idninacapital Idnina Capital Management (@idninacapital) reported

    *** NOTE *** NOT INVESTMENT ADVICE *** NOTE*** (1 of 3) As a show of support to @wallstreetbets and the movement, we purchased exactly 1 SHARE of $GME at the market price of $193.60 just before the close today after our attempted call option trade was rejected by @etrade.

  • adamdoesco Adam (@adamdoesco) reported

    @JoshMcKinney18 @etrade Yup, as of about an hour ago. Glad I got in this morning but WTF.

  • SoCalLakerGuy Los Angeles Pelicans Guy (@SoCalLakerGuy) reported

    @ggggggrant @etrade Probably to hurt retail and help their pals on wallstreet. Only reason I can come up with.

  • Burner000010 Jeremy (@Burner000010) reported

    @etrade Why are you guys shutting down trades of #GMEstock ? Wanting a lawsuit too?

  • cham_mumbai b r (@cham_mumbai) reported

    @etrade trying to place an order. Get an error stating I cannot place an order online.

  • thedpatel9 Deven Patel (@thedpatel9) reported

    @etrade customer service line declined me 😐

  • adamdoesco Adam (@adamdoesco) reported

    .@etrade WTF WHY on earth are you restricting $GME and $AMC?

  • Frankkhunterr Frank (@Frankkhunterr) reported

    @DoNotPayLaw where do we submit lawsuits against @etrade I don’t pay for this service to be blocked from purchasing with my money, and I certainly don’t like having prices driven down when you prevent purchases $GME

  • GETTIN_IT_DNE Smiley (@GETTIN_IT_DNE) reported

    @lknilans10 @RobinhoodApp @etrade Damn I guess we have to go to Ameritrade lol

  • grahamsz grahamsz (@grahamsz) reported

    @DaKnot @etrade Conveniently their customer service wait time will if you actually chat with them will take you just outside of extended trading hours (at which point i presume they'll tell me i'm outta luck)

  • etheriatic Etheriatic (@etheriatic) reported

    .@etrade just stopped trading for retail buyers. If I can sell my $AMC options, who ******** is buying? Because it isn't retail.

  • AdamGordon1977 Adam Gordon (@AdamGordon1977) reported

    @bobbibillard @etrade I always see you support @RobinhoodApp. Which do you like better?

  • ArtByJoel ArtByJoel (@ArtByJoel) reported

    @etrade i just went ahead and filed a complaint with the SEC since you refused to respond to my request regarding access to the money that I placed in my account. hope that's cool. will also be telling my wife to cancel her account with you since you're nothing but thieves.

  • ProgressTechno Progressive Technocrat (@ProgressTechno) reported

    The danger of the lawsuits is bad publicity. This is a free country, if you don't like @RobinhoodApp policies then go to @etrade and see if it is any different.

  • adalast Adam (@adalast) reported

    Finally got on the phone with @etrade customer service after over an hour on hold. Apparently "The volatility of the stock caused their risk assessment team to lock trading on it to protect the customers." I called BS. They are sending me to a trader to purchase without a fee.

  • DanWinburn Dan Winburn (@DanWinburn) reported

    @IlhanMN Tried to buy into GME on @etrade . Get the transaction all set and then get an error message! Not allowed to buy online. “Ok, it says to call in so I will!” Recorded message saying that I specifically cannot buy that stock because reasons. WTF. Guess I’ll keep eating beans.

  • webcav1 Carlos V (@webcav1) reported

    etrade blocking purchases of $amc. wtf! @etrade

  • bradleybouchard Brad Bouchard (@bradleybouchard) reported

    @etrade So why the restrictions on AMC? Where were you to protect me on some penny stocks I lost one? You are just as bad as @RobinhoodApp

  • Gera92114834 Gera (@Gera92114834) reported

    @StanTradingMan @etrade @TDAmeritrade No one complain when I lost 15000 from my 401k at the beginning of the pandemic. Wedge funds actually profit from it. They even bragged how they had become billionaires during the pandemic.

  • BrendonWriter Brendon John (@BrendonWriter) reported

    @etrade I am unable to purchase GME, but can however, sell it. I cannot Etrade get support through chat, email or phone. How is this okay?

  • meauxtothe angel garnet silk (@meauxtothe) reported

    @etrade just pissed me off. how you take my money and now i can’t log into my damn account?!

  • tiffani Tiffani Ashley Bell (@tiffani) reported from Stanford, California

    @johnwlockwoodiv I get that, but I meant problems like what I mentioned in my original tweet. @etrade has never errored out for months straight whenever I’ve attempted to withdraw money. (Effectively keeping my money until they decided to release it)

  • OpStrategist Strategic Operations (@OpStrategist) reported

    @etrade how do you let a person place an order at one price, then when they try to average down, restrict trading on that stock. What happens when @WSBChairman decides to short $ETFC

  • caps_fan74 CapsFan74 (@caps_fan74) reported

    @atazoya @etrade Getting the same error. What a sham. I can't buy $GME with @etrade because they are protecting the hedge funds in keeping the stock as low as possible.
