NDB is the same price for all stocks including BBs. However, on high volume days, the web page and "Power Broker" (the touch tone phone thingee) will tank along with your stocks. Normal volume days-no problem with BBs/Listed.

If you have to call a "live broker" you can wait 5 to 30 minutes. In the case of a changing ticker symbol, this is an adventure. It would be easier finding the Lost Ark of the Covenant than trying to sell a changed ticker through NDB. When I go to sell the stock, it is always a 45 minute to 1 hour process to do it. Then your account is hosed up for 10 business days afterward.

Lots of things done through NDB via live broker are done as though it is the very first time it has ever been done.

Things with NDB have gotten better on the live broker front: I am on a first name basis with the supervisor of trading. I just ask to speak to Claude. He and one other guy there (Angelo) are the only two guys that have at least a shred of a hint of a partial clue as to what they are doing. The rest of the guys... I think are picked up randomly off the street each morning to come in and work trading that day. They give them 2 bottles of hooch and 20 bucks for their efforts at the end of the day.
