Pros: Lots of promises Cons: Poor service, communication, overwhelmingly complex, they deleted my IRA without notifying me, they broke their written promise, I could go on and on...
This is a revision to my original Epinion, which was less than positive itself, about E*Trade. I have since then had cause to cancel my account and contact a lawyer for help getting out of the trouble E*Trade got me into. To put it briefly: E*Trade never...

Pros: Reliable, cheap, well-designed Cons: Horrible customer service
E*TRADE's customer service is absurd, particularly the email and live online help. In several cases, my questions have gone unanswered or the service rep has chosen to answer a completely different question. It is obvious that they have form letters all...

Pros: Nice charts, decent quotes, and good customer service. Cons: Expensive, hard to find information
I have already written an opinion on Ameritrade, and I will go ahead and say that Ameritrade is better. E*Trade is not bad at all, but it is not the best.
First of all, it has nice charts. The charts are great, because you can put whatever...

Pros: Cheaper than Schwab Cons: Expenisve, Poor customer service, Poor Brokers, Slow
I have just recently began my adventures in the stock market. Etrade is the third online brokerage I have been with. I can’t say that it is the worst, but I can say it has its disadvantages.
Solomon Smith Barney is my favorite brokerage...

Pros: Easy to navigate Cons: Fees are a little high
I began using E*Trade as my on-line broker because of the employee stock option offered at my place of employment. The stock we purchase is put into an Optionslink account which is affiliated with E*Trade.
Contrary to most people's opinions,...

Pros: Information, navigation, complete services, response time, orginal content, and chats Cons: Customer service, cost and IPOs
The world of online brokers is a competitive one and despite minor drawbacks, E*Trade is one of the best out there.
I started my E*Trade account several years ago before anyone ever heard of trading stocks online. Since then they have grown...

Pros: great service Cons: none
I've been using E*trade since June 1996. Their web site and telephone support has been fabulous right from the beginning. The 3 most important parts of any on-line brokerage firm is service, service, and service. I have almost never been disappointed...

Pros: Excellent investing tools Cons: Trades not the cheapest
I have used Etrade's service for about 5 years. I find it very easy to use and the trade execution messages are sent to you very quickly. I have had experienced problems with the site about 4 times in 5 years. The link to Clearstation is cool. That is...

Pros: ergtewrg Cons: rgeww
SureTrade's combination of cheap trades and no-frills service pays off big time. I waited until trying a second online broker, E*Trade, before writing either review. I was disappointed with several aspects of SureTrade, but I knew that many of these...

Pros: Good customer service Cons: Low prices
I have used both Etrade and Ameritrade and this seems better than the other. The only thing is for small orders which mine mostly are, they don't seem to be to keen to fill it at the best price that there can be and that is sometimes frustrating. Mostly...

Pros: Easy, I mean easy to use Cons: Trading price should be lowered
Despite negative reviews I still think that E*trade is the best online brokerage. I find it affordible and just in my price range. Only cost me 75 dollars to open an account and trading costs $14 for dow listings and $19 for nasdaq( I do believe this...

Pros: Easy to use, when working right Cons: Possible Web page problems? not confirmed
I access my E*TRADE account using an Imac and 128bit encryption Internet Explorer 4.5. I have a clean connection using Mindspring and a V.90 modem.
For the first 5 days accessing my account I was only able to log on about 25% of the time....

Pros: Fast Trades, Great Research, Easy To Use Cons: Commission Price
I have been an E*Trade customer for over a year now and I have been satisfied with their services. All of the trades I have made were executed very fast. The research available helped me out with deciding which stocks to trade. I enjoy their...

Pros: E-trade is great Cons: Suretrade no more
I have been trading online for about a year and a half. I first started out Suretrade and made trades for $7.95 per trade. There was no minimum deposit and for a newbie, like me - it worked fine.
Then, I decided to try E-Trade and ohmygawd!...
