Phillip, Take offense if you like. I don't know you. But I know how Web Street has behaved. It's Web Street Securities who sacrificed their reputation through their own behavior, making them suspect not only in my eyes, but many others. Anyone touting Web Street will be suspect because of the people at Web Street who logged on here under false pretenses.

If you have read the thread you'll see that many customers posted numerous posts documenting similar problems to mine with them. I'm not the only one to have posted repeatedly about the issues. Some of those people say they were kind of offended that they weren't singled out by Web Street for public attack and vindictive action as I was -- yet. A lot of people will be leaving Web Street, not because of me, but because of Jon Rosenberg's posts and Web Street's unprofessional behavior toward a customer.

You'd like to see it resolved? So would I. It would have been resolved if Web Street had wanted to resolve it. Instead, yesterday, they declared war on me. I can and will take the time to see that their behavior is exposed elsewhere, and to explore filing charges against them. Worry less about how I spend my time and more about how Web Street spends theirs. After all, it's your money in their hands.

You should ask them to credit you not only for MY $100 but for the $50 they STOLE from my account. I'd bet Rosenberg will be happy to give it to you. Then you should give me a big thanks for that money that Web Street stole from me. Shouldn't you?

As I roam the other boards I'm finding other examples of customers that Web Street seems to have cheated out of funds. Watch your account carefully. You may get my credit, but who knows what other money might be mysteriously disappearing from your account? Everyone should reconcile their brokerage statements from Web Street promptly, though if money is gone and they promise to refund it, in my experience the chances are small that they will actually give the money back.
