Can't even send a message to customer service: I'm at this screen: Service Center Topics \|_Contact Customer Service Luckily (somewhat) I've opened an account with a real live broker with a real office. But to hedge my bets, maybe it's about time for an MB trading account. I know, different types of accounts. Um, BYE-BYE E-TRADE BTW got my first e-mail back concerning my non-execution (http://206.253.217.14/~wsapi/investor/reply-8425090) Your trade inquiry is being researched. XXXX is no longer a valid Stock Symbol, thus your order request (s) for XXXX are no longer valid, as far as I know. This is being passed for a more definite answer to your inquiry. My feeling: No $*T Sherlock, but why wasn't the symbol updated? I bet if XXXX was up 21% they'd turn around and fill me. Grrrrrr, gary P.S. I got messages from ETard cancelling all my sell orders, but these were cancelled the day AFTER my non-execution. Oh well, it's only money.

RIGHT ON! The 'classic site' was much better than the new one, and I have complained to them repeatedly to please leave it open,, to at least give the customer a choice. The custome is always right, right? Wrong at E-jack-off. All they care about is to get you to use the overly complex site to try to market a plethora of financial services taht traders don't want. They've been jerking me around trying to get Power Etrade enabled, which every time i logon says I am qualified for. I will be upgrading to a direct access level 2 system. ARRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!! those b*strds*
