sometimes the simplest things tell a story better then anything, in this case, the utter lack of common sence. Sure, its little, but it speaks volume. This is a post by a person who use to be a e-trade customer:


"I have an E-Trade account.. after I made a bunch of money.. then lost most of it in the dotcom bubble.. I got wise & withdrew all of my $$ from my E-Trade account.. but didn't want to close it.. so I left 9 cents in the account.

That was about a year & a half ago.. & every quarter, they keep sending my statment to me (note: postage is 37 cents + processing, paper, hiring Julio to lick the envelope, etc, etc)


My question.. Are they that desperate to cling to customers to keep my sorry-ass account there.. ??"



Now, I also use to have a etrade account....there has been $5 in it for the last 3 years. And, I get not one, but 2 statements every quarter from e-trade, despite not having logged into my account or made any transactions in the last 3 years.
