My cert came from Scottrade, with papers attached from Scottrade... one of them being a receipt they'd like signed and sent back so they can know for sure you got them.
I'm mean and never sent that little form in.

One week later from my conversation with the transfer agent I called Scottrade to ask where my certificate was because the transfer agent said they sent it to Scottrade. The lady at Scottrade said "no, your certificate comes from the transfer agent", I told her the transfer agent turned the request around the next day and sent the certificate to Scottrade.
She said "let me see if anyone in the transfer department knows what's going on" and put me on hold. They're not answering from the transfer department, but you shouldn't worry - it will take 4-6 weeks to receive your certificate and it's only one week.

I ask you (IHUB), even with snail mail (not even courier), why should it take an additional 3-5 more weeks for Scottrade to send me my certificate?

I think there's something "fishy" going on. TA tells me one thing and Scottrade's telling me the opposite.

The certificate should have MY name on it, not anyone elses. To what benefit would it be for Scottrade to take that much time to send it to me?

Anyone have any clues, please advise.

TIA
