This is probably my biggest issue with etrade.
But MS is now calling me to inquire about my trades and starts soliciting for me to get an advisor. I
find this very invasive, especially since they call and leave a message indicating there's a problem with my account to get me to call back, only to solicit me to purchase a service.
Now Im considering a move for these two reasons. Not sure to where, however.
Have you ever told them to stop calling you/remove you off a call list or you’ll leave? Most bigger firms do this in different ways. Charles Schwab does it in the same way if you have over 500k. Fidelity does it over 100k but instead of them trying to rope you into an advisor they have the advisor call you and try to rope you into their active ETFs.
No I haven't. I have just politely declined. Initially I was kinda shocked at the method to get me to call back. Maybe I should be more direct.
I didn't realize this was so common. Ive considered fidelity. Ive used E-Trade for 15 years, don't really want to change. Ill see how things go moving forward.
Fidelity has the best rep when it comes to it. Charles Schwab used to not have it at all, but they recently introduced their version of E*Trade diamond kind of and then starting pushing for more private bank areas.
I would be more direct.
NO I DO NOT WANT TO SPEAK TO AN ADVISOR AND IF YOU KEEP ASKING ME I WILL WITHDRAW MY MONEY.
I signed up to get the 5% cash rate but they keep asking me every time I call. Like chill out, MS sucks balls.
I hope so.

Yeah, it’s frustrating. I DCA my buys and often times I have to wait between paydays to buy.
ha! I doubt it
I was told no about 6 months ago.
