Today was the 3 week mark from first requesting my cert with eTrade. I called the TA and I'm still not on record. I called eTrade and the rep was really nice but he didn't really have much info. He just said the standard timeframe and that as far as he sees it is in process. But the shares and $40 are still in my account. I'll be calling in a week to hit the 4 week mark of the 4-6 weeks standard timeframe they quote.
