-
10loris (@10loris) reported@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.
-
Stingray Agent (Intern) (@stingray_agent) reported@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?
-
StevenJay88 (@stevenjayhova88) reported@etrade FIX YOUR WEBSITE YOU DUMB *****
-
Stingray Agent (Intern) (@stingray_agent) reported@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.
-
Melissa (@angelaira) reported@etrade You are only as good as you customer service, and yours is lacking.
-
mblaso (@blaso96) reported@etrade are wires down?
-
Bren (@Brenw) reported@etrade What's the contact number for Ireland service desk? I've tried 1800 90 3588 (not regcognised) and +1 650 599 0125
-
Creemer (@Creemer14) reported@etrade the system is down and not even reading my social security on the phone.... I waited on the phone for awhile....Please address....Thanks....
-
C (@Cofc64) reported@etrade how come no notification of the site being down. Unbelievable. Do better.
-
💎👐🦍 (@amcOGape) reported@etrade now holding unsettled funds from trading as part of a new company policy. WtF is going on?
-
Izzy (@diamondguyizzy) reported@fundmyfund @etrade THIS IS AWFUL
-
MAKBOT (@MAKBOT) reported@etrade your Support team have not responded to me since Dec 2025. How do I submit a formal complaint?
-
Cece Moestra (@CeCeTrading) reported@etrade Their new platform is absolutely terrible.
-
Andrew (@Andrew99Blue) reported@Maximus_Holla Marekts sitting on critical support. E-trade mysteriously goes down. I'm guessing we'll get access on Monday and accounts will be empty. This is going to be criminal. Come on @etrade. Stop being China.
-
Christine Barnum (@christinebarnum) reportedIs @etrade app charts not working?
-
Michel Rougemont (@MRougemont) reported@etrade no comments about your system being down, leaving your customers blind and unable to adjust their positions ?!
-
John C9 (@FlatTax9) reported@etrade With bad executions, poor customer service, sorry horrible. You will lose all your money at E*Trade/Morgan Stanley.
-
Alexander Lee (@alexanderlee1) reported@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!"
-
Buns&Coffee (@schang76) reported@etrade @MorganStanley did they buy Etrade or did MS sell themselves in a merger because they are one of the worst shops on Wall St that survived by getting bailed out by American taxpayers through trickery and blackmail? can't even keep the lights on properly on a trading day.
-
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?
-
Mark Nathanson (@deepbkln) reported@etrade Your website does not send a code to login from a new computer when requested. How long is this problem going to continue?
-
Ekardnam (@7Ekardnam) reported@etrade @MorganStanley absolute disaster today, could not close all my covered calls, will end up assigning a stupid amount of shares and costing me an asinine amount of money in taxes . Couldn’t trade on platform, called and they couldn’t place the trades. Etrade fix this. $ms
-
JKSC (@jk1775) reported@etrade @MorganStanley Long time account holder. I have to warn you that e*trade stands out in a very bad way from most other online brokerages in that you still charge fees on mandatory corporate actions on equity holdings. Your UI is top notch but these fees have driven me to open accounts at other brokerages. I hope E*trade reconsiders and eliminates these ridiculous fees to stay competitive.
-
Brian (@Brian7722763252) reported@etrade I cant login. Im lossing money. How will u compensate for this?
-
David Schwartz (@BigDave469) reported@etrade Your bank is the worst financial institution ever… I’m so glad that I have a little to do with you as possible.
-
Van Quan I 🌊RIVER | Bird🕊️ (@Vanquan_titans) reported@etrade when two become one is cute, but what exactly is merging here? accounts, tools, or costs? if this means one login for brokerage and retirement, a single tax pack, better cash sweep, and clearer order routing, my portfolio will actually feel it. if not, it’s just copy. what changes on day one, and is there a transfer bonus for consolidating assets?
-
