I hate E.Schwab.
Used the wonder why I was getting such lousy fills until I learnt that market maker, Mayer & Schweitzer,was owned by Schwab. Thus they make a nice profit off you by selling to you high and buying from you low.
Also during the market correction in Oct. 97 I lost a $3000 plus profit by not getting my order executed on time.
I felt further insulted when Mr. Arrogant AKA Charles Schwab appeared on CNBC and tried to deflect a question about poor service during the Oct. "crash" by complaining that some people are getting in and out of the market too quickly...and I thought I should be allowed to do that if I chose... ignorant me.
I just cant stand such arrogance!
Suffice to say I don't use them anymore.

I use Fidelity @14.95, and it's also full service if needed! It costs $25 for a live broker. I have nothing but great things to say about them. Never wait on the phone if I need them. Online has been excellent! With FOX+ I can short stocks without a broker.

I use E*Trade as well but not too often. Not as reliable.

Also, when Fidelity executes on the NYSE, on occasion I get a price improvement trade where I actually get the bid as my ask price or the ask as my bid price. An added bonus and a few bucks as well!
