This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

On April 1st, 2025 I did a $3000 deposit from my bank to my E-Trade account to purchase stocks. It stated that a certain amount could be used right away, so I bought some shares of stocks. The very next day they changed my transaction from a 30% Margin to a 100% so it would be short. Within an hour of changing this they did a Margin call and immediately sold my new stocks, at a large loss, to cover the new Margin. So I was allowed to buy $5600 in stock one day and then the next day they sell those stocks for $1550 without even an email to me or a chance to get the money they wanted to cover the new Margin.

Claimed loss: $4000

Desired outcome: Action reversed and my stocks put back into my account. Some time to put outside funds into my account to cover what is needed.
