dude, according to their website:
Certain E*TRADE brokerage accounts will be charged a $15.00 account maintenance fee at the end of each quarter in December, March, June, and September, if the account meets certain criteria. An account maintenance fee will be assessed if your brokerage account balance is less than $5,000 or, you have not executed at least 2 trades in your brokerage account in the 6 months prior to the 27th of December, March, June, and September.
Additionally, the following accounts will not be subject to the fee: IRAs, Power E*TRADE accounts, Custodial Accounts, Options Link accounts, and brokerage accounts opened for less than 12 months before the 27th of December, March, June, and September, as well as accounts with total linked balances of $20,000 or more.*
do you know the exact date that they take that 15 bucks out of those doormat accounts ... I am afraid to write a check of the full amount to close some of my accounts, because if they deduct the 15 bucks before the check is cleared, I will be in deep shit trouble with returned check fees and other fees ... |
