IEHaving opened an account with… Having opened an account with Tastytrade in January this year, I went on to fund it finally some weeks ago. Although the platform is quite good, despite being buggy at times, my trading experience was horrendous. Days after placing my first trade, my account was set to 'closing only'. When I inquired as to why this was, a member of the trade desk informed me it was because I was 'placing uneconomical trades'. My primary strategy involves trading deep in the money vertical and calendar spreads, because one is able to use low margin, and avail of high profitably for such trades. I asked them to reset my account to place trades again, to which they obliged but only on condition I no longer used these strategies that they didn't like. All the while feeling like a scorned child, and email correspondence that was very dicatatory in tone from customer service. However, when I began trading again, this time using closer to the money trades, albeit somewhat still ITM, I managed to have a diagonal spread fill 5 contracts for a very small risk yesterday, that I also managed to close out for a profit of $820. Then I received an email from Tastytrade again, informing me that because I went against company policy by implementing such trades, my account was again set to closing only and effectively closed. My next step is withdrawing my legitimate profits from my account, and seeking a worthwhile broker whom appreciates my business, and will not excessively micromanage my account in such a ridiculous way. I do not recommend Tastytrade to anyone. Steer clear of this very underhanded brokerage!!

GBI liked their security levels I liked their security levels. People would see it as inconvenience that they blocked privileges but instead that was not me logging in so they saved me from someone taking my money. Secondly, their easy to chat with and quick solutions that are intuitive.

GBVery Arrogant customer service Promotion offer tempted me. But not worth. you will have too much frustration from locked up with no reason to log in and 7th new password creation . Agents over the phone are not friendly, lack of ownership, very stiff . This company are not customer centered in business

ATExcellent customer service Excellent customer service. Never had to wait more than an hour (worst case) for resolution of issue. As a long term user (since 2018), TT has been reliable both from a technical as well as support perspective.
