The account balance line as it pertains to margins is often times incorrect. Yesterday I became annoyed and worked through three idiots at the new Atlanta call center before getting to someone who had a brain in San Francisco. My point was, how would it be possible to have margin outstanding when I haven't utiltized all my cash!...why would I borrow money from them instead of using my cash first. Incredibly simple concept yet it took 4 people to understand. They corrected my account.
