Charles Schwab shutters 79% of TD Ameritrade branches -- though 140 will cohabitate with a next-door Schwab branch -- and refers legacy TDA assets to legacy TD RIA custody clients

The San Francisco retail brokerage will keep 400 branch addresses and no legacy Schwab assets will get referred to a 'TDA' RIA for now.

SERVICE HAS PLUMMETED SINCE THE MERGER. 30-45 MINUTES WAITING TO SPEAK TO CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HE NORM. SCREEN FREEZEUPS AND SDISSAPPERAING BALANCES DURING THE TRADING DAY ARE THE NORM. BASICALLY THE MERGER IS ONE STEP ABOVE TRASHY ROBINHOOD....IM GOING BACK TO ETRADE & FIDELITY
