Quick Tips
New Clients*For the best service new clients are encouraged to contact us via the following methods:
*Please note:
The Client Service contact numbers and addresses are for clients and prospective clients of Place Trade Financial, Inc. ONLY! If you are a client of Interactive Brokers, any other firm that clears through IB or any other firm, broker dealer or advisor ~ please call them directly for your customer service needs.
Why don't you answer questions and offer free customer service for other financial services firms that are completely unrelated to you? Simply put, we can only speak to the policies and procedures of Place Trade and that pertain to clients of Place Trade. It is not possible to speak to the policies and procedures of other firms!
Place Trade has received high ratings and prestigious awards for having excellent customer/client service but we can only help you if you are a client of ours! Assuming that we have the same policies and procedures as our clearing firm or other firms that clear through IB will put you at risk! Place Trade cannot be responsible for answering questions that pertain to your account at another firm as we do not have anything to do with how the policies of other firms are handled. Again, if you need help from your current firm please call them directly. We can only be responsible for our clients and our policies. We will be more than happy to assist you with your account service needs that are related to your Place Trade Financial account!
Life is too short to be unhappy for another day regardless of how much you pay!

We only provide services related to Place Trade Financial, Inc. Please do not call us and pretend to be a prospective client to test what you have heard at IB or other firms as we are not a part of those firms. While Place Trade's policies and procedures will at all times be in compliance with regulations we do not have the exact same policies or procedures as any other firm. Place Trade cannot be held responsible for policies and procedures of other firms and has no control of the procedures of other firms. Calling us to get information about another firm does not benefit you when dealing with those firms. Yes, this may sound ridiculous but amazingly we deal with it every day. |
