Claimant says: "I had a mutual fund ( Benham Capital Management) that was absorbed by e*TRADE in 1985. I was informed that at age 59 1/2 , you can begin withdrawals, so I elected to close out my acct.entirely, & they sent me a check for the proceeds( $300+ ),but it was made out to my former name,Wang J.Kirov. I requested that they re-issue the liquidated assets in my real name,jeffrey Wang, but they said I would have to furnish papers documenting the name change, & subsequently stopped payment. SInce I do not live in Oklahoma anymore,& do not know if the Lawton attorney is still alive , or not, I cannot accomodate e*TRADE. I went down to their S.F. etrade office & furnished my Driv.License & SOcial Security benefits statement,& they said no dice. Although I agree that this is a rather common dispute, I received no response from their New Jersey Headquarters( they sent some form letters). If they had an online complaint dept., or a CEO that was accessible, they certainly don't advertise it. Is the financial culpability w/ the bank, dept.store, credit union, or other fly by night businesses, or the customer who loses , or fails to keep records?(court order name change?). I wish to resolve this issue in a timely manner, as opposed to dragging this on for months on end, as per their management philosophy.
