I had a brokerage account that I closed out by transferring all of my stock and cash to another brokerage. Apparently they failed to transfer it all and left 2¢ in the account. For nearly 10 years I’ve been receiving mailed statements from the old brokerage with my account details. I wonder how many other accounts are in this limbo, and how much postage (now over 50¢!) is being wasted on these mailed statements.

I’m glad my only inconvenience is having to recycle the monthly mailings, and not mounting fees, like the people at Wells Fargo!



I have an ETrade account like this.
