Thinkorswim Closing UK Accounts
I've been with Thinkorswim since early 2008 and while good initially, as soon as they were taken over by TD Ameritrade, they started to go downhill rapidly. What was a good platform became extremely flakey and over-engineered. New software releases saw standard studies like Bollinger bands get changed or renamed, existing study sets being lost or causing crashes, or the platform becoming completely unusable whenever the market was a little bit fast like at the market open.
While things have improved recently, their cretinous support seem to have become more stupid by a large number of IQ points, who seem incapable of reading and understanding English written in an email.
Now, Thinkorswim have decided to close accounts for UK residents, regardless of how long those accounts have been with them. This is yet another example of how poor their customer service has become since being bought out.
A once great little broker, that was eaten up by TD Ameritrade and are now a shadow of their former self.
