Thanks - they have promised this update for a long time. When I called them last year around this time on this issue they said "probably Q4 2021".

I have an IT background, so I understand that projects often run late. However, this is not all that hard to do (witness eTrade and Fidelity) so it could have been done faster if they had chosen to.

My personal guess is that their overriding IT priority has been integration of Ameritrade and Schwab platforms and (even more so) the back end systems behind them, and that everything else has been pushed aside to devote resources to this. That is where the money would be for them in both savings (not having to operate redundant systems in the same functional spaces) and brand management.

Thanks for the update - glad to hear there is something targeted for next month. I say targeted, as it could slip further. Since they are not trying to beat someone else to market with this, this will delay further to get it right if necessary.
