Now that two of the three are not working again, I went to reverse the charge again but the last rude, obnoxious Fidelity rep I talked to stated that Badger Bobs said the item was fixed and she would not help me at all. Fidelity has provided the WORST customer service I have ever received in my life. I immediately canceled the credit card and am in the process of moving my account balances to Schwab. I have been with Fidelity for over twenty years, but upon researching I have found that Schwab is the leading money management firm for personal investors.

Safe IRA Investments might be the biggest fraud in the real estate game. I was initially looking to…read morerent a place in Sarasota, and they had a property listed in which I checked out. After the walk through with Jeff, who knew ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the property, he informed me that it would be essentially the same price to buy as it was to rent. This was the first lie that came from this sorry excuse for a company told. After getting started with the preapproval process, I was promised repairs on the property in which were completely disregarded. They we're originally supposed to repair all windows in the house, and because their contractors didn't pull permits, an immediate stop work order was placed on the garage. After that fact, Safe IRA informed me that they we're only going to replace a few windows in the house(the cheapest ones) making the home not hurricane resistant safe. The documentation process was also a nightmare as their team ignored a lot of calls/texts/emails in regards to the property and paperwork required. I was once told over the phone that they were "not going to repair the things they promised, as they had a cash offer behind me and if the contract fell through, they didn't care. They asked me for some pretty invasive information in order to get the paperwork to go through, even asking me to admit that I was in a domestic partnership with my business partner that was purchasing the home with me. They also did not repair A SINGLE ITEM on the inspection list. After the closing on the home, that's when the real nightmare began. Everything that was "renovated" in this house was essentially thrown together with glue. After the first day, I realized that all of the plumbing was bad and the drains and sinks were all backed up. Within the first week, we realized that the electric wiring in the house had to be completely redone. Not days later, the AC went out. The windows that they had replaced, we're all done incorrectly and needed to be replaced. Once the deal closed, all parties of IRA completely ignored my calls/texts/emails. This company will attempt to sell you a house that's barely held together for above market price. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy as it's been the worst investment and buying process I've ever experienced. I would give zero stars if that was an option.

I saw the concerned look on the receptionists face and asked if there was something wrong as she looked up data. She said no that she was trying to read. When I tried to give history about what I needed she told me to not talk because she was talking. She kept asking me for emails and I was upset and couldn't find them. When I asked to see someone else she sat me down in the front lobby and got me a cup of coffe and went away with my paperwork and came back with instructions to go home and do my paperwork there. I checked afterward and found only one account. I conclude she simply got rid of me. I was very unhappy with this service and will take my inherited money out the first chance I get. Of course there is a charge for doing that. The advertisements that Charles Schwab offers high touch services are just ads
