Etrade - Bogus requirement for SS card
eTrade is requiring a copy of my SS card (mine is in a Safe Deposit box a large annoyance away) which is NOT required by the Patriot Act CIP requirements ( I just read the CIP documents), ID with a picture is required by the CIP and I can easily provide an ID, but for eTrade it's not enough. eTrade seems to have their own version of the Patriot Act.
To top this off, I already have 2 eTrade accounts from another company stock plan, which they will happily service, but require copies of the SS card again for the new account and the company I work for only works with eTrade.
What a Joke... DO NOT use eTrade if you can help it.
