IN 2023, I simply cannot understand why TD charges $2.25 a contract for futures trading. It is crazy it is not justifiable whatsoever. It is not that TOS is the most superior platform out there compared to others especially when it comes to Futures trading yet their charges are simply ridiculous. I would love to use TOS since I can integrate all my trading in one platform, that is Options, stocks and futures but I had to move to other platforms that are fair in futures pricing....until TD get back to their senses and review this unjustifiable Futures commission.

They wake up in the morning, have breakfast and coffee, and drive to their office in their cars, with the aim to make as many people's lives miserable as possible. This is their life's aim and philosophy. Money is something that everyone wants, so why go after it? Go after something that provides a better kick to your mood, like spoiling someone's day.

Well I am A victim of identity theft with identity theft.gov and somehow I already A 401k, cryptocurrency, stock, bonds, and I already have been given retirement documents from the social security administration, and TD Ameritrade has on my documents retired as a professional trader and federal government entrepreneur.

Once again I'm beating myself up daily because my credit score is poor and I can't get A startup business loan from anybody in which identity theft plays A big part into. But I don't know if this company has established partnerships with different regions but I'm with the European Economic Area United Kingdom and Switzerland and the business structure is accurate connectivity with accurate intellectual property. They want to commercialize in other countries 12 million United Kingdom users and 3 million Asian users and just maybe if but from the looks of it I doubt any changes just based off the representative customer service skills but maybe you guys can reach out to them on the behalf of TDANINJA04 LLC that improvement are A must. Thank you for your help and services.

I have had an account open with them from early '2007. Last year + they keep reorganizing securities seems like every month, as soon as they charge you $38.- and you pay it, they find another reorganizing fee to charge you with, it is total **, so watch your account is melting away just paying their fees: sample right here...

I have given them two opportunities to keep my business. The first time they promised me a $1000 bonus for moving my $500k to their platform and never paid it. I moved my money to Merrill. The second time I moved a small amount there to trade SPX and they gave me instructions on how to remove a hold from an ACH deposit so I would have funds available to trade before a Google earnings report. I sent them the requested document from my BoA branch manager and, after receiving it, they then told me "Oh, it needs to have this special verbiage."

So why would you not tell me that when you sent me to get the document and waste half a day of my time as well as the branch manager's? I decided to just forget it and let the funds sit there on hold for four days even though they had the money the next day from the bank rather than look like an even bigger fool for having to go back and get another document. There are better, faster, more respectful brokerages that treat you like they appreciate and welcome your business. Find one of those, in my opinion.

Lost my mother-in-law in Dec '21 due to Covid; she had small Ameritrade account. After providing death certificate we were told to complete several pages to transfer account into her son's name and then he could close account. We submitted all documentation by Feb '22 and were given email confirmation all set. To this date, October '22 we have not gotten this taken care of, we continue to get monthly statements in my deceased mother in law name and when we call we get told to call back after another month, that it would be done and to this date not done. Terrible customer service.

These people are unethical, politically driven monsters who will rape you of your money without warning within seconds. They only care about covering their own asses and will lie their heads off after they do so. They don't have to follow federal or FINRA guidelines and are given carte blanche to destroy people intentionally. Do not, I repeat, do not go to FINRA for anything. Do not go to a FINRA arbitration. The system is 100%, indisputably rigged. FINRA is not there to protect consumers. They are there to protect the brokerages and keep the table tilted. TURN AND RUN FROM TD AMERITRADE AND FINRA IF YOU VALUE YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY. THESE PEOPLE ARE MONSTERS AND HAVE ZERO CONSCIENCE ABOUT PUTTING PEOPLE THROUGH LIVING HELL.

One of my largest positions, Mineworx MWXRF decided to offer a Rights Offering @ 1.5 cents per share for a right to a share of common stock up to the amount on record July 18 ,22. Mineworx is a Canadian company and in in order to be eligible as a US resident, required a waiver. I received the waivers and instructions by mail from TD Ameritrade. TD however decided that they would Not allow me to participate because Mineworx is a Canadian company. TD Ameritrade had No trouble selling me 103,800 shares in 6 or 8 transactions (fees) I was on the phone twice over 45 minutes with TD refusing to give me the Exact reason for the denial of service. Mineworx has No problem and has said that the only broker that they had trouble with in this Rights Offering is TD Ameritrade.

Cut off my ACH transfers over their faulty app not canceling a transfer. Margin called me 7k. Told me wrong wire transfer info over phone. Liquidated my position after failed transfer. Told They were force closing my account because these brokers work together with other big money to rob retail. Was told my stock was eligible for stock certificates because I couldn't transfer on a CE. They then never did the certificates and liquidated forcing 60k loss. Going to sue for this awful treatment.

On August 10th, 2022 I sent an ACH of $.... From my checking account to open a TD Ameritrade account. The next day I was able to view the account online and was awaiting for the funds to be verified. On August 15th, I was restricted from logging into my account. When I made a phone inquiry, I was told that my account was closed because of suspicion of fraud or theft. No other details were given to me other than that. I requested that the funds be returned to my checking account but was told that someone in the fraud department would get back to me. No one from TD Ameritrade has contacted myself by mail, email or phone as of August 25th. There are numerous Better Business Bureau reviews from clients that were caught in the same scam as I and it's surprising that an established firm is scamming clients by taking their funds and holding them hostage.
