I think the service has been just as good but I have to agree that the annoying partial trades on low priced stocks makes me want to shift the account at times.

I've had days where I got $30 worth of stock or less and $10.99 commission. It's not going to break me but it does a lot on that mental trade basis computation.

They should realize that they may lose customers because of the change from Datek's prior percentage commission. Or they should immediately implement "all or nothing" trades.
