A new low in ETrade customer service reponses:

I'll summarize a long string of emails.
I changed the names to protect the guilty.

1. I am experiencing a problem editing my portfolio.
2. 4/27 - I sent a note describing the problem. My note included my account number.
3. 4/27 - I received a reply from xxxx saying she'd like to help, but I didn't include my account number - EVEN THOUGH IT IS PLAIN AS DAY.
4. 4/28 I resend the note indicating my account number AGAIN - clear as day at the top of the note.
5. 5/5 Since I didn't receieve a repsonse in a week, I send the note again.
6. 5/5 I receive a response from yyyy confirming that my account number is what I stated.

Yes, the response is:

"We apologize for the confusion about your account number. Our records indicate that your account number is xxxx-yyyy."

Of course, the problem is that I can't edit my portfolio.
I know my account number... how else would I be logging on...

But the real problem is the caliber of people that they hire...
