ETRADE CONTACTS SHAREHOLDERS

Tuesday morning in Paltalk, two people claimed they were contacted by Etrade this week concerning their certs. Acting for Etrade, Ridge Clearing, formerly ADP, told one shareholder they could no longer hold their cert because it is non transferable. Problem is, shareholder received their cert in Dec '05. Another was asked to return his cert. If anyone receives communication from Etrade regarding their cert can you PLEASE post the info here? TIA!

Did these shareholders receive a letter, email or phone call?
If it's a letter or email it would be interesting to see!!

Both letters. Will try to get them to publish.

I just got a message from visadr7. He said that one of his co-workers who hadn't received her cert(s) for over 2 years just got them yesterday from E*Trade, out of the blue.

This information is as reliable as it comes.

I "had" an etrade account in addition to my main acct at Atrade........ Noone has contacted me about anything........

Oh yeah.... Atrade just sent back my certs from ZNext (PAIM) saying they will not accept certs for this company. So....... sitting here with 2 certs (after being R/S just about into oblivion) .... can't deposit, can't trade.. (sigh)

Life in the Pinkies !! ..... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr !!

We have heard rumors of this in the past and it came up to me a lie..Any proof?

[hundredtoone]

Well I like Stormgrey and if he says that is true I believe it probably is...it sounds to me like POSSIBLY...the WRITEDOWNS of E-trade along with THIS tidbit makes it a possibility that E-trade was PAYING OUT for CERTS to finish sending them out to the NSS positions still on the books...that COULD be why we have not been payed since EVERYONE must be paid TOGETHER IMO...remember the BANKS like BOA and CITI were the ones that BORROWED the shares and gave them to E-Trade and other brokers to SELL SHORT...then their inability to DELIVER made them LIBEL to the brokers for the FTDs IMO...could that be why BOA and CITI are on the ropes...paying for DERIVATIVE DEBT???...Flying Moose(cmkxunofficial)

Hopefully it is the case. I do not Stormgrey but glad that you have good things to say!

Good ol' Etrade......... the master of Mis-information throughout the years !

I believe they enjoy watching our reactions to their "mistakes" .... kinda like a get even tactic for how we tortured them.
