I am disappointed to hear about problems with TDW aterhouse because I was just going to open an account there. I can't stand the thought of giving a bunch of money to a company that provides poor customer service.

I'm peeved with SmithBarney, which I currently use, because they tell me they cannot accept a check from one of my companies made payable to me, signed by me, and endorsed by me! These are my own companies-how do they expect me to get money out? Anyway, any other suggestions for a good broker with a miles angle? I'm not a trader-more buy and hold.
