My response from DLJ direct was that the lowest ASK price for yesterday was 19 7/8. When I asked, "Isn't that a large spread?" The reply given was, "We use the NY Exchange for our numbers." This to me seems like what Bob Brinker was talking about re "Trading Stocks"? UTEK is thinly traded compared to Intel. BigCharts only shows this at 19 1/8th bigcharts.com I would call again and ask for a better explanation unless they decided your business was not worth a good answer. regards Kirk out

Tony >> To the good doctor and all: IMO these guys are brutal, definitely time for a new broker. Did they mention the $75 fee to close an account? Any recommendations for an on-line broker? I don't recall hearing any advertise on Money Talk recently. I wonder which one BB would recommend... -Randy

I would ask to speak with a supervisor in order to register a complaint with DLJ Direct. If they "make you whole" and you're otherwise happy with their service, why change. If they stick with the first answer, I'd pull my account. Ian.
