Schwab's executions aren't what's bothering me. It's their web site. Slow as sludge. And if you do try to get a live body on the phone, you sit on hold for 20 mins. sometime.

BTW, what's this nonesense about Brown & Co. and them saying, "call us up and see if you meet our stringent requirements." Do they have a net worth test or what?

I also tried to get on E-Trade all morning yesterday. Finally got on about 11. Fortunately, I was not trying to place a trade. This is my daughter's broker. I would not use them for myself as I trade more often. It did cost my daughter dearly when she was trying to get out of DBCC. We couldn't get online or through to a broker.
