I believe that the ever increasing number of investors with Datek has resulted in diminishing returns in its service. This will be true at all on-line brokers. It is the same thing that happens with a good ISP. Things are great until it gets popular and then the company can't handle the volume as well. While I hate to see you guys and gals switch brokers, it should result in less traffic for Datek.

Now, it is true that Datek's customer support has always left lots to be desired. But for the most part, I have very few complaints about my ability to trade, but I do not do day trading so I can't speak to their performance there.
