Brokerage account
I need to open a new brokerage account. What I am thinking is to open an account with AmeriTrade and deposit 25k first, this will give me 20k Starwood points, and then transfer 10k to open a TD Warehouse account which will give me another 10K AA points.
My question is, how fast I could get my Starwood points from AmeriTrade? And do they allow me to transfer money out in about three four months after my account is opened? And some people posting that they have problem to get their TD Warehouse AA points, what is your experience with TD Warehouse?

Tomcat,
I just opened a account with Ameritrade. The first 10K points (total 20K)
posted within 4 days of Ameritrade receiving my deposit. Hopefully, the second 10K points with showup after the 6 month holding period as promptly.
Here's the fine print:
Offer valid for new Individual or Joint accounts opened and funded between 04/01/03 and 10/31/03. Please allow 6-8 weeks from account funding for the first half of Starpoints to appear in your StarwoodPreferred Guest account. Account must remain open with minimum funding of elected tier level for 6 months; at that time allow 6-8 weeks for the second half of Starpoints to appear in your Starwood Preferred Guest account.
