  • vbender Viv (@vbender) reported

    @etrade NO ONE answers your 1-800 number. I’ve been on hold 4 times today, over an hour EACH TIME. This is exasperating I am NOT EXAGGERATING. I need help with my account!!!!!

  • MrGDiaz G (@MrGDiaz) reported

    @etrade what is going on with your phone system? I was on hold for over an hour and then it just hung up on. Called back and now wait time is 90 minutes! Live chat option on website is not working. I need help.

  • GreenTeamDFLY DFLY (@GreenTeamDFLY) reported

    @ldev117 @etrade Everyone I talk to IS having the same issue STILL after all these months when Etrade switched service provider or whatever. I even had a tech see it real time while was talking to him & here now 6 months later still not working. Really throwing ppl off & most dont even know it

  • zogzac ZogZac (@zogzac) reported

    @india_gauravS @etrade Company overview and research report links are broken, has been like this for a while .

  • LegacyofaPhoen1 LegacyofaPhoenix (@LegacyofaPhoen1) reported

    @etrade When are you going to fix your research tools? Because it's starting to look like you don't care.

  • TheJenCarey Jennifer Carey (@TheJenCarey) reported

    @etrade There's an issue with my account and the wait time to talk to a representative is 2+ hours?!

  • ckopyar Chris Kopyar (@ckopyar) reported

    .@etrade - is the site having known issues with ESP services? Not loading, live chat is down, call in wait time is >60m. Working against a 1pm pt deadline and would appreciate outreach or a method to resolve.

  • seives10019 Summer Ives (@seives10019) reported

    @etrade Live chat is down and it’s a two hour wait time on your customer service line, which is wholly impossible, not to mention, the exact opposite of customer service. How does one actually contact you?

  • GreenTeamDFLY DFLY (@GreenTeamDFLY) reported

    @ldev117 @etrade Just look at real time quotes on power etrade vs the L2 quotes on otcs & switch btw big board tickers on dropdown & clearly see that issue still too. Even haps on option chains STILL as well when switching tickers on a chain. Unacceptable. LOTS are being misled by WRONG/off L2s.

  • PulpMyFiction Dijana (@PulpMyFiction) reported

    2 hour customer service wait time @etrade ?? 😤

  • LegacyofaPhoen1 LegacyofaPhoenix (@LegacyofaPhoen1) reported

    @etrade Fix. Your. Research. Tools.

    @etrade Fed is the problem

  • LSKMSun James Sun (@LSKMSun) reported

    @etrade I kept getting the no internet connection error!! Power etrade app!!?

  • KylePageSquared kp² (@KylePageSquared) reported

    @etrade fix your premarket executing… what’s the point in making agreement for pre market trading if nothing gets executed!!!

  • ckopyar Chris Kopyar (@ckopyar) reported

    @vbender @etrade Not encouraging news - currently on hold for the +1 hr mark here with Live chat down and an area of the site erroring out ahead of a 1pm deadline...

  • IdealisticGary Idealistic Gary Gensler (@IdealisticGary) reported

    @drippy2hard I use @ETrade and their paper trading is NOT identical to live trading. The platform is screwed up. Wild commission fees that don't reflect live trading. It's balance feature won't reflect buys and sells. Its straight up broken. I've told them. They confirmed it. They don't care.

  • Michael39285833 Michael Dennis (@Michael39285833) reported

    @etrade when I log on, the top section of my account is blank. there is no logoff, complete view, transfer funds or any other option, its just my portfolio and thats it. im current on hold for the past 20 mins. is there a problem with your site?

  • _seanleong Sean Leong (@_seanleong) reported

    @StarSteins @etrade Sorry you’re experiencing such service, send me a Dm to learn more about how you can invest in crypto properly and earn profits daily!

  • TradzJ JTradz (@TradzJ) reported

    @etrade you have a ****** platform and horrible customer service. Hope you go under with all the new competition...

  • adarsh227 Adarsh Jain (@adarsh227) reported

    @etrade My account is not working. No help either. Customer service is terrible. Kept me on hold for over 2 hours My accounts are completely scrambled. What should I do? Has etrade gone to the dogs?

  • lilithellfires lils. (@lilithellfires) reported

    @etrade why is live chat with us unavailable ? I've been trying to reach you guys for a month now ; and it's not working

  • kukap_ MK (@kukap_) reported

    @investvoyager @etrade 3/ @Ehrls15 - dumping VGX & Voyager Stocks from my portfolio. At first opportunity. ‘ll move out of Voyager completely. If this issue is not resolved in 24 hours. Never to return to Voyager . The support team sucks, they respond with generic email. This is insane. Check 1 & 2.

  • LegacyofaPhoen1 LegacyofaPhoenix (@LegacyofaPhoen1) reported

    @etrade Fix your research tools. Or at least email us and admit you don't give a ****!

  • ldev117 Lee (@ldev117) reported

    @GreenTeamDFLY @etrade same thing with me, they saw it all real time, and said, its not broken enough to fix.

  • IsTrumpARapist_ GOP🙉🙈🙊 (@IsTrumpARapist_) reported

    @etrade Get your crap together ETrade! Can’t buy or sell due to a “glitch” 😡

  • wilshipley wil shipley (@wilshipley) reported

    I'm 100% convinced that hold music and intermittent "please continue to hold" messages are designed to get people to give up. *cough* @etrade *cough*
