I routinely have to call Ameritrade to get them to submit my buy orders.

Here's the routine. I pull up level 2 to see where the bids and asks are. I'll place the order at a price somewhere above the highest bid. I'll wait a couple of minutes to see if my bid appears on level 2. It never does. Call Ameritrade, explain the situation, they put me on hold. While on hold I see my order appear on level 2. Call taker comes back, says they had to call the 'order desk' to 'get the order posted'. I ask why it always happens when I try to buy DIMEQ and not other securities, they essentially say that they really don't know.

My curious to know if this happens to anyone else?
