Michael...maybe this will help.
I would be interested to find out why your broker doesn't work at Paine Weber anymore. But as far as your option order. He could of very well put the order in at 6 3/8 watched a fill of 2 calls and assumed that you got filled. He certainly should not of said anything until he had a confirmation of a fill from his wire operator.
Regardless, I do not think this is an arbitration matter. I would talk to the "branch manager" and nobody else...tell them the story and tell him/her to make it right. On that kind of order, and considering the abrubtness of your brokers departure..(for whatever reason) I would guess they will make it right. But contact them right away...and get a new broker...I know a good one thats available. <bg>
I might suggest next time that you put in a market order. Again, if you have a good broker he/she will get you the best fill available. Sometimes you miss a lot trying to squeeze that 1/16th out of a trade on a limit order.
Good luck...
Muhney
