nope . now i got the right story . i had some money in a treasury reserve fund r. sounds safe enough. that was the money that was frozen it turns out, and according to the ameritrade, Reserve Funds filed with the sec to continue allowing them to freeze those funds, and the sec has permitted them to do so. I find this pretty outrageous that the funds have apparently been frozen since Septemeber 16. According to ameritrade there is no timeline right now for when those funds will be released. Im glad its not too much money but its still annoying. for crying out loud this was a money market fund that supposed to be 100% invested in us treasuries. how much safer could i have gone?

That wasnt the right story after all. it would have been if i had us government but its in treasury r. reserve funds dont have permission from the sec for that one. now amertrade says that the last they heard was that reserve was going to pay them today by they havent gotten any money yet and they dont know when.
