Yep, that was a problem for me years ago when I wanted to transfer my account from Choice Trade to Etrade. Ended up that Etrade only allowed me to transfer one penny equity and that was because I originally purchased it from them and had transferred it to Choice back when there were no restrictions. What I had to do was to liquefy my account and sell anything that was nontransferable.
